Tour Japan in 10 minutes

Posted on 16:58 by Unknown
Posted by Michael Rubinstein, GIS Specialist, Google Earth

Hot on the heels of yesterday's Webcam.travel announcement, we've also launched a new Google Earth layer under the Travel and Tourism folder in the Gallery. The Japan National Tourist Organization worked with the Google Japan office to develop the Japan Tourism layer, which features rich information on landmarks and attractions all over Japan. These include everything from the many temples of Kyoto to the bustling streets of Tokyo to the clear blue waters of Okinawa. Turn on this layer along with other interesting layers such as 3D Buildings, Panoramio or Kyoto Tourism to get a head start on your trip planning.
