In this case, it is a directory of what to do, where to eat, and so forth in Canada's very own [Toronto](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oche). The site is virtual and visual rather than text-based. You navigate by clicking landscape views that then lead to pics of the interiors of businesses. Streets.to is the only patent-pending virtual cityscape. **Implications** - Check out famous city hot spots like Dundas Square and The Annex as you take a [virtual tour](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/realtour-ai) of Ontario's capital city. Streets.to is the perfect way to plan a Toronto trip before you step foot outside your door. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.7/10 - Popularity: 1% | Activity: 13% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [World](https://www.trendhunter.com/world) > [Travel](https://www.trendhunter.com/travel) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Virtual City Directories:** Streets.to offers a new approach to traditional city directories by providing a virtual and visual experience. - **Visual Navigation:** Streets.to revolutionizes navigation by allowing users to click on landscape views that lead to interior pictures of businesses. - **Patent-pending Cityscapes:** Streets.to holds a patent-pending status for its innovative virtual cityscape concept. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Travel and Tourism:** Streets.to disrupts the travel and tourism industry by offering a unique virtual city tour experience for potential visitors. - **Online Directories:** Streets.to presents an innovative approach to online directories, transforming them into immersive and visually-driven platforms. - **Digital Navigation Tools:** Streets.to provides a disruptive solution in the digital navigation tools industry, revolutionizing how users explore and navigate cities. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Itinerated Travel Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/conciergeled-walking-tours.md) - [Unique City-Based Culinary Tours](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tasty-tours.md) - [Three-Dimensional Art Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3d-doubt-your-eyes.md) - [Top City Discovery Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thingsin.md) - [Toronto Neighborhood Expansions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spatial-media.md) - [Experiential Entertainment Spaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/illuminarium-1.md) - [Premium-Quality VR Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sandbox-vr.md) - [Accessibility Virtual Tour Maps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/accessibility-virtual-tour-map.md) - [Localized Hotel Offerings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/live-local-stay-w.md)
