Night Walk in Marseilles

Our wanderlust is unsated during this pandemic. Travel videos seem to be getting more viewing than normal. But technology can let us go even deeper. 

YouTube has leveraged their Street View technology to create an atmospheric virtual walking tour of the Cours Julien neighborhood in Marseilles. Instead of regular Street View, the tour makes the neighborhood feel a little more authentic by using nighttime imagery and providing narration by a couple urban storytellers. Check out Google's Promenade Nocturne. Talk a virtual walk, watch some videos, and just wish you could walk even more.
