WikiSpots

WikiSpots lets you explore interesting places near you — right from the map. The app shows places as pins on the map, with text pulled directly from Wikipedia articles. Tap a pin to read more about a place, or browse a clear list of all nearby places. When you are abroad, WikiSpots pulls the article from that country's own Wikipedia — where local places are actually covered — and translates it into your language before you read it. You get the local article without having to read the local language. Whether you are exploring your own city or travelling somewhere new, WikiSpots helps you discover the history and facts behind the places around you. Features: See interesting places nearby on the map Search for any place in the world Read Wikipedia articles directly in the app Foreign articles translated into your own language Browse a list of all nearby places Tap a place in the list to see it on the map
