Virtual visits reveal museums' magic
She says the introductions on museums' nameplates are often simple. Online posts can elucidate the incredible stories behind the displays.
"During the epidemic, I take the time to sort out numerous photos that I've taken in museums at home and abroad, reminding me of the pleasant memories of my previous trips. I also learned about other museums through social media posts," says Su Su, a travel influencer with more than 11.8 million followers on Sina Weibo.
Her most popular museum photos were of the world-celebrated destinations like the Louvre in Paris and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and some niche museums.
"Virtual museum tours nourish the mind and ease pressure, especially for people in regions where the epidemic has had a greater impact," says Mao Yan, deputy curator of Suzhou Museum in Jiangsu province.
