And when I say classroom, I really mean it. Walk into the room on the left, and you will literally find yourself in a bona-fide classroom, complete with desks, school posters, a teacher’s desk, board, and even an eager pupil
Check our the post there to see the screenshots. You can find the classroom in-world here.
Learn more about the Princess, and her virtual worlds campaigns, by visiting her blog here, or her group in Twinity! The Princess had some feedback on London as well:
She said: “Since I saw the first line of trees I immediately knew we where by St James’ Park and The Mall – It is truly remarkable the detailed work that one can appreciate on these buildings and it feels like traveling back on time and space”.

Koinup wants you to say hello to Virtual London!
After the launch of Berlin and Singapore, Twinity adds a new hit to its series of cities. What make Twinity exciting is that they are trying to think their virtual world as not with the lens of escapism, but more with the lens of augmented reality. That is: thinking virtual worlds as tools that increase the perception of reality.

Virtual London
Auch London ist nun als dritte Metropole im Bunde im Metaversum Twinity begehbar. Die Spiegelwelt hat sich darauf spezialisiert, Städte eins zu eins nachzubilden und der Realität so nahe als möglich zu kommen.
Some more coverage from:
From Random Magazine, here’s an interesting story about a photographer using Twinity’s Virtual Berlin for some interesting work.
The project introduces a series of b&w photographs shot in Twinity, a mirror world that reproduces a realistic 3D replica of Berlin. The photos shot in Twinity, are then geo-localized in Google maps, re-mapped from virtual to real and positioned in the exact point where they have been shot in the mirror world.
You can find the Remap Berlin project website here.
