Holy shit! The virtual tour of the Sistine Chapel, by Bryce Haymond, is absolutely incredible. Go...

As part of a History of Creativity class at Brigham Young University we were required to do a creativity project. This could be anything we wanted as long as it was creative and incorporated some part of history from the class in it. After considering several different options I decided that I could recreate the Sistine Chapel from the Vatican in Rome, Italy. This chapel houses some of the most spectacular frescoes from Michelangelo in existence, but most of the time they are all viewed separately as individual pieces. I wanted people to be able to view the chapel in its entirety - to be able to enjoy all of Michelangelo’s works and many others all in a glance, and then be able to focus in and study individual pieces that interest them. I wanted to recreate the experience of actually being there, without having to travel around the world. I decided to recreate the Sistine Chapel in virtual reality. (via)

WOW. Panorama!
