An amazing app recommend to you

I am looking for an app that is not necessarily to be an educational tool but something really helps users and makes learners joyful. I notice Google Art & Culture. It combines aesthetic appreciation with language learning.

It has different categories and the content in each category updates regularly. For example, under the theme of Mosaics, 12 masterpieces with mosaic patterns are displayed on the page with both pictures and text description. By reading the articles,  learners can enjoy an online gallery and gain some knowledge of the art, and also, implicitly receive authentic language input.

This app is not just a silence exhibition but it links to different youtube videos, for example the interview to the musician or dramas which reappear a certain period of the time.

Wales is a country situated in the southwest part of the island of Great Britain and here is some Introduction.

Although wales country is a part of UK, welsh people has their own culture and language. I’m interested in introducing wales because I lived in Swansea, which is the second largest city of wales, for one year. It is a seaside city but unlike Edinburgh, the city of Swansea lies beside the sea as a strip belt. Also as the name indicates, Swansea is famous for gorgeous swans. People there are friendly and helpful.This is the link to official website of wales for tourists: Things to do in Wales. Hopefully you are interested in wales and Swansea and visit this place someday.
