4/ Visit a museum…but from your own home

An increasing number of museums are offering the possibility of looking at their works of art or roaming around their exposition rooms from the comfort of your own home.   The Louvre in Paris offers this but there are many other galleries around the world that do it too. Sundays are often a day for a cultural activity.
