Armchair Travel are based in London, and so have filmed a number of panoramas
here.
Piccadilly

gather and relax here year-round. view
360° panorama
NOTE: This
panorama is one of the first that we ever filmed for the internet,
back in 1995.
In those days, we used a single-shot camera and took 12 pictures around
to complete the panorama. Since traffic in Piccadilly Circus was moving
during that time, you will see partial images of moving cars and people
where the 12 pictures overlap.
