“…Also, authors confirmed the effectiveness of 360• VR technology usage to promote historical attractions and enrich the user's experience (Argyriou et al, 2020;Škola et al, 2020). So the expression of VR technologies has become a crucial update in the latest few years and will continue in the future, as it generates economic opportunities through the support of technological innovation (Bafadhal and Hendrawan, 2019) and serves to improve the pre-, during, and post-trip experiences of visitors. Additionally, these technologies are creating a new tourism paradigm (Zhang et al, 2022;de Lurdes Calisto and Sarkar, 2024), named virtual tourism (VT), which is predicated on an immersive online environment modeled after actual tourist destinations (Bogicevic et al, 2019).…”

Recently, tourist activities have been greatly impacted by festival tourism. Also, virtual events are new types of event experiences that the media world has proposed recently. These are thought to benefit the tourism sector as well as tourists in cases where physical attendance is not feasible. The purpose of this study is to clarify the New Year festival (wpt-rnpt festival) and revitalize it nowadays by using virtual reality (VR). In order to answer the study's questions, a questionnaire form was distributed among Egyptian tourists in a quantitative approach, and SPSS (Version 26) was used to examine the 440 valid submitted forms. The result revealed that Egyptian tourists who visited or might visit the Dendera Temple in Luxor and Egyptian tour guides who frequently had tours with tourists in the temple were excited about the idea of using VR technologies to revitalize the ancient New Year festival virtually. Therefore, it is recommended for the Egyptian tourist authorities to include festival events in the Egyptian tourist agenda, and they have to encourage Egyptian travel companies to include festival events in their programs or plan unique itineraries for attending festival events.

“…The more varied the needs of many schools to carry out outdoor learning activities in the form of edutourism, the more business opportunities are opened that require a lot of new workers (Ram Choudhary & Srivastava, 2022). An edutourism location requires a lot creative human resources to build an educational tourism location that is increasingly more attractive and meets consumer needs (Bafadhal & Hendrawan, 2019). This will really attract consumers to pay for all the facilities provided and really support all learning activities in outdoors by the school.…”

Education is the right of everyone wherever they are, at any age, including economic conditions at any level. The way to obtain knowledge can no longer be limited by anyone and anything nowadays. In this global era, education patterns are increasingly diverse, knowledge transfer activities no longer have to always be carried out in the classroom. The pattern of teaching and learning activities outside the classroom has also been implemented by many educational institutions in many countries, including Indonesia. When teaching and learning activities are carried out outside the classroom, it generally increases interest in learning for students at primary and higher education levels. In this article, we will convey qualitatively the efforts to transfer knowledge outside the classroom in order to increase interest in learning and reduce boredom due to always studying indoors. A two-way interactive atmosphere is one of the effective ways of learning activities to produce better student abilities, in all subjects or certain subjects. The more optimal human resource capabilities are in the future, we can be sure that economic conditions and many other fields will be better and able to compete with other nations.

“…Virtual tours can be considered a possible action "that can improve the tourist attractiveness of a city, especially in the case of interesting unknown or inaccessible aspects" [10] as well as a common practice to address inaccessibility. Virtual tourism can be interpreted as "a digital presentation of the actual tourist attraction, where geometric properties of three-dimensional space are communicated to virtual tourists (also called tele-tourists) in such a way that they can provide immersion and telepresence from tourist objects that seem to be real" [30].…”

Over the past decades, 360-degree virtual tours have been used to provide the public access to accurate representations of cultural heritage sites and museums. The COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to a rise in the popularity of virtual tours as a means of engaging with locations remotely and has raised an interesting question: How could we use such experiences to bring the public closer to locations that are otherwise unreachable in real life or not considered to be tourist destinations? In this study, we examine the effectiveness of promoting engagement with a city through the virtual presentation of unknown and possibly also inaccessible points of interest through a 360-degree panoramic virtual tour. The evaluation of the experience with 31 users through an online questionnaire confirms its potential to spark curiosity, promote engagement, foster reflection, and motivate users to explore the location and its attractions at their leisure, thus enabling them to experience it from their personal point of view. The outcomes highlight the need for further research to explore this potential and identify best practices for virtual experience design.
