Abstract:
The article investigates the influence of virtual reality on users' minds through the interaction when viewing a virtual tourist destination through virtual reality goggles. Users feel as if they are physically present in the tourist destination thanks to the 360-degree view and the surrounding sound. Virtual reality redefines the way tourist destinations are experienced and explored, offering an engaging and exciting alternative to traditional tourism through advanced technology that promotes immersion, education and personalization. Visitors can move freely through the virtual environment and explore every corner at their own pace. Virtual tourism has emerged as an innovative alternative to explore tourist destinations and experiences through digital technologies, especially virtual reality (VR) and reality. Virtual tourism not only offers a new way of discovering the world, but also contributes to the promotion of destinations, the preservation of cultural heritage and the inclusion of people with disabilities or travel limitations.
