During the time of the pandemic, travel restrictions have impacted the tourism industry with an estimated loss of more than a trillion USD; however, at the same time, we have seen a significant increase in profits for the industries which empower remote connectivity. Various studies have identified the positive impact of virtual tourism, in which tourists can be attracted by providing a VR/AR-based experience of the destination. Similarly, virtual, mixed, and augmented realities are being used to enhance user experience in digital heritage and its preservation. With emerging technologies and increasing demand for e-tourism (due to travel restrictions), there is a need to review the technological changes and analyze user requirements with respect to virtual tourism. This paper provides a literature review of the latest technologies and applications that can potentially benefit the virtual tourism and digital heritage industry. We also provide an analysis of its impact on user experience, awareness, and interest, as well as the pros and cons of virtual experiences, which may benefit the research community about the current spectrum of virtual tourism and digital heritage.

“…One of the first categories of Virtual Reality cultural heritage applications is the Virtual Museum category. Game engines have a significant impact on the development of virtual museums [15], [16] as they offer the functionality needed for a virtual environment to avoid its time-cost development from scratch. Virtual museums are excellent platforms for digital representations of physical museums, and they are used either as exact virtual representations or creatively designed to present a new identity.…”

Immersive technologies (Virtual, Augmented, and Mixed Reality) are widely used in cultural heritage for communication, enhancing the visiting experience, and improving learning and understanding. Immersive technologies have found their way into museums and other cultural spaces in various forms and shapes. This work aims to recognize the main forms of immersive technologies and applications in museums and other cultural spaces and provide information on the employed methods, technologies, equipment, and software solutions by conducting a systematic literature review aligned with the PRISMA guidelines. The analyzed literature was collected through a focused search in scientific databases (Scopus, ACM, and IEEE). The relevance to the subject was assessed based on the main technological focus (VR/AR/MR or XR) and the employed technologies. Methods and approaches for realizing their applications were studied and discussed. Thirteen articles were found to meet the selection criteria, of which two focus on VR, six are on AR, two are on Audio-AR, and three are on MR. The results showed that Augmented Reality solutions are preferred for on-site use; Mixed Reality applications started to emerge as Mixed Reality hardware technology became available and Virtual Reality despite being criticized for isolating visitors. The findings cover the existing gap in recent literature and can reveal a set of good practices and innovative ideas for future applications.
