Click on any of the black dots on the map below denoting a location that you can view. The place's name will appear. When you click on it, a new browser window will open. Once the window is open, you will be able to use the mouse and arrow buttons to navigate your way around. On the right-hand side of the screen, you will be able to change between places to go to. On the bottom left side, you will see the language and music bar, which also contains information, a mute option, and of course zoom. On the upper left side, you will be able to go to 'full screen' (highly recommended!) as well as 'hide' all the toolbars.
