Broke my iPhone and got an iPad. Want access my iCloud files through my account.

I want to see my old photos videos ect. that I uploaded when I had an iPhone

I switched over to an android for my cellular device but want the best of both worlds

by still using iTunes for music movies and iCloud.

How do I access my backup files?

iPad, iOS 7.1.1
