Google Maps has just launched a new app called “Favourite Places” as a tourist guide from the many different perspectives of influential locals. Selecting somewhere like New York City gives you personally bookmarked locations to visit, each with personal notes of why that spot was chosen and related images.
Not sure it will be a tourist “must see” before you go, but its an interesting experience depending on the person you choose to browse a city with… Musician, Chef, Mayor, Sporting Star… Check out the Google Favourite Places website here.
