Marking 110 years since the establishment of the National Park Service, the US National Park Service (NPS) has teamed up with Google Arts & Culture to launch the United Parks of America virtual platform, essentially bringing the country\u2019s natural landscapes and historic landmarks directly to global audiences. The digital initiative provides open access to the nation\u2019s cultural heritage and preserved lands, enabling people around the world to discover iconic sites regardless of their physical location.Jessica Bowron, National Park Service Comptroller exercising the delegated authority of the Director, emphasised the importance of broad public reach.\u201cAs we celebrate our 110th birthday during National Park Week, one of our biggest priorities is access\u2014engaging people in new ways and making sure as many people as possible can experience these special places. Working together with Google Arts & Culture allows us to share the natural wonders and historic significance of our parks with people, even those who might never get to visit in person. This collaboration ensures America\u2019s story will endure and remain accessible to everyone,\u201d Bowron said.<\/p>\n
