A self-guided audio walking tour for any city
You are in a city you only half know. There is an old building on the corner, a statue in the square, a street with a name you cannot pronounce. You could stop and search. Or you could keep walking and listen. Laqao is an audio travel guide for walking a city. Tap any spot on the map, or use your location, then tap Speak. Laqao tells you about the place: its history, facts and local stories, read aloud so you can keep your eyes on the street. When the story ends, tap Next nearby to hear the closest place, and turn on Follow me so the map moves along with you. Every place you hear is saved in History, so you can find it again and add photos to places you've heard. Narrations are written by AI from public information, so they can contain mistakes. Check opening hours and safety information locally.
