Google has officially announced the launch of its Street View service for Thailand. The company has released a huge album consisting of street view images of the country and it’s a must watch for travelers and non travelers. All you need is a web connection and you can literally surf through Thailand, from the food stalls to the Palace to the streets and get a glimpse of the country without getting off your chair. The country is the 35th nation to get Street View and is the second one in Southeast Asia after Singapore.
In Asia-Pacific, Google Street View is available in Japan, Taiwan, Korea, Australia, Singapore and Thailand. In Thailand, the next cities for Street View will be Chiang Rai, Lamphun, Lampang, Nakhon Phanom, Hat Yai and Nakhon Si Thammarat, and also Thailand's World Heritage citiesgle.Google Street View will definitely help to increase the company’s tourist value to an extent. These high resolution images were clicked together by Google’s cars that consisted of rooftop cameras with 15 lenses. The cameras clicked 360 degree still images and stitched them together to create panorama images. So, in case you guys haven’t visited the country, have a look at the images on their page (you'll need Google Translate) and explore the country, from your browser.
