Doctor Chao Fah Museum McCormick Hospital, Chiang Mai, McKean Institute Photographic Museum, Chiang Mai Prov, Central Library, Chiang Mai University, Technology and Interdisciplinary Management, Graduate School, Chiang Mai University. For the development of virtual tour, the following stages of Human-Computer Interaction principles have been adopted: (1) Task analysis, (2) Requirements gathering, (3) Design and storyboarding, (4) Prototype Implementation, (5) Evaluation, and (6) System maintenance. The results of the virtual tour performance with Usability Testing by 3 experts have showed that the system has worked following by the function. Suitability of design and content including satisfaction of use have been excellent. The results of a technology acceptance with the Technology Acceptance Model 3 from the target group of high school students in grades 4 – 5 at Dara Academy, a school where Presbyterian missionaries were founded, 105 students each, have showed that the perception of usefulness, the perception of ease of use, and the intention to use the system have been very good.
