Abstract
Mechanisms are provided for identifying, selecting, presenting travel media to users of a mobile device. User location information and directional information is received and travel media including images, video, and audio relevant to an attraction within visual range of a user is presented. A user turning toward a particular monument may be presented with an audio or video tour of the monument that progresses as the user moves about the monument. A user approaching a particular district may be presented with video commercials about fine dining in the area. Presentations may be adjusted as the user changes location or changes viewing direction and selections may be tailored to user interests and preferences.
