Point your camera at a landmark - LoreLens tells you its story.
LoreLens is an AI tour guide built for exploring China's scenic wonders. Snap a photo of a landmark, and within seconds the AI identifies it and narrates a rich, engaging audio guide: the history, the legends, the poetry, and the tales behind what you're looking at.
WHY LORELENS
- INSTANT RECOGNITION: Take a photo and AI identifies the landmark, from the Great Wall to the Three Gorges. Tell the app which scenic area you're in, and it can name the individual gate, pavilion or peak standing in front of you.
- STORIES, NOT JUST FACTS: Each guide weaves history, folklore and classical poetry into a narration that feels like a knowledgeable friend by your side - with cultural context written for first-time visitors to China.
- 206 SCENIC GUIDES BUILT IN: An editorial library covering China's landmark scenic areas, with photos, practical notes, common questions and further reading. Read them, or have them read aloud - the sentence you're hearing is highlighted and the page follows along.
- LISTEN ON THE GO: Narration is synthesized entirely on your device. Keep listening with your phone locked and in your pocket.
- FIVE LANGUAGES: Interface, guides and narration in English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese and Korean. Follows your system language on first launch, switchable anytime.
- NEARBY DISCOVERY: See top-rated scenic areas around you, or search all 373 of China's national 5A-rated scenic areas by name, pinyin or English.
- SAVE & REPLAY: Bookmark landmarks you've visited and replay their guides anytime - offline, and in the language you saved them in.
- SHARE WHAT YOU FIND: Send any scenic guide to a friend. The link opens straight to that guide inside the app, in their own language.
PRIVACY
No account, no sign-up, no tracking, no ads. Your GPS coordinates never leave your device: the app matches them offline against a scenic-area database on the phone, and a recognition request carries only the name of the scenic area you are in. Photos are sent over HTTPS solely to be recognized. If the landmark is recognized, your photo is deleted from our servers immediately - before the guide is even written. If it is not recognized, the photo is kept for up to 7 days so we can work out why, then deleted automatically. Retained photos are never linked to any identity. Guides you save stay on your device.
Perfect for travelers to China, culture lovers, and the simply curious. Lower the camera, and hear the story.
