Anna Sasaki's curator insight, March 22, 2015 3:16 AM

Google maps has recently introduced the virtual exploration of over 30 Indian heritage sites on Google maps with the support of various organizations to do so.

This globalization may diminish some boundaries between cultures as globalization brings knowledge to others of people who may be different than them.

This article and event in which Google partakes in directly relates to globalization and the the effects of technology on culture. Globalization is irrefutably occurring though this free access of cultural heritage sites in India. The effects of technology on culture is prominent as there is cultural diffusion somewhat through the internet as the Google maps provides more ideas and views on India and its culture.

The precious watermarked sheets from Fabriano are destined for distinguished purposes, and are made with carefully selected raw materials through a method that has remained unchanged for 700 years. [...]
