In the face of the novel coronavirus outbreak, all museums in Yangzhou have been closed since Jan 24.
While people are confined to their homes, they can explore the museums and enjoy various exhibitions through virtual tours, which have grown in popularity during the epidemic.
Users can enjoy a range of activities with the press of a few buttons on their phone, such as viewing photos and videos of relics, touring virtual exhibitions and listening to explanations of certain relics.
