United Nations for Refugees in partnership with Google released the immersive website “Searching for Syria" that explored five of the most common search queries people around the world were asking.

The website combines maps and satellite imagery with video, photos, data visualization and simple text to provide rich, dynamic answers, UNHCR said. The website provided information about the tourism, social life, historical sites in Syria before the war. It also gave insights and numbers on the Syrian war and refugee crisis.
