Apart from that, those who cant afford going to the far off places enjoy watching photographs and get an idea on how things can be. Pictid is portal that lets users view places around globe by simple clicking.

The content placed on Pictid is user generated, be it images or videos, meaning that all that you see comes from people like you instead of some professional tour planning site. The idea is to let others see how things can be for real in the distant places.

Users can search for places by simply typing in the name and /or location of the famous building or place and then view the images or videos that have been uploaded by others. In case you fail to find images of a particular place, the site enables you to upload those that you have and provide the name and location so others can benefit as well. The whole idea is to provide a place for enthusiast to visually experience how it is to be at that place. And more importantly it’ s not just about a locality or a country, but global.

The categories let you sort out what sort of places you might be interested in and you can learn about every important place that’s an attention puller. So if you think your city has something that’s worth a visit and it’s not present at Pictid, just signup an upload images and videos to let the world know.
