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.

Whether you are exploring your own city or travelling somewhere new, WikiSpots helps you discover the history and facts behind the places around you.
