Definition
观览 is a formal verb meaning 'to view, observe, or inspect' — it overlaps with 参观 (to visit/exhibit) and 观看 (to watch), but carries a more literary or official tone. You'll encounter it in contexts like touring an exhibition, reviewing documents, or enjoying scenery. It's less common in daily conversation than 看 or 参观.
