As much as we love to get out and explore the city of Buffalo, sometimes we don’t always have the luxury to go out and do just that. Whether it be because you’re sick and can’t get up off of the couch or the weather has left you with only so many options, every now and then you’ll find yourself in need of virtual experience. If you’re ready to venture in and around the Queen City without ever stepping foot outside of your home, then get a look at these virtual tours and outdoor adventures that you can virtually experience here in Western New York.
If you're someone who finds yourself in need of some virtual art, one of the best first stops to make while traveling through the internet is Buffalo's Albright-Knox Art Gallery! Thanks to this massive galley, you can digitally explore the incredible collections in a way that will make you feel like you're right there in the museum.
If you head on over to the official Facebook page for the Burchfield Penney Art Center, you'll be able to find daily images of Charles Burchfield's works of art and even his actual journal entries. Woah!
No, we're not playing tricks on you Buffalo. You can actually virtually hike your way out to Erie County's Eternal Flame Falls. All thanks to the power of Google Street View, you'll be able to virtually hike your way through Chestnut Ridge Park and explore all around Western New York's most unique waterfall. Seriously, you'll want to check this out!
Another unique virtual experience that will leave you in awe, Buffalonians can stream performances by the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra each Tuesday evening at 7 p.m. that will leave you feeling nothing short of at peace with the world.
Another digital catalog that you'll want to virtually get your hands on, the Buffalo History Museum is just one of many museums in the area that you can explore - all from behind a screen. Plus, you can even virtually explore some of the museum's past exhibits that are no longer on display!
A presidential 360-degree tour that will leave you completely intrigued, Buffalo's national historic site can be explored virtually. This is one of the most bucket list-worthy virtual adventures you can experience here in the Queen City.
Ending your virtual adventures just north of the city, Old Fort Niagara offers live streams of the historic fort all throughout the year. Giving you a unique view of a different area of Western New York, this is one webcam you'll have a hard time pulling your eyes away from.
