Take a virtual tour of Tokyo in 3D with new Google Maps imagery

Exploring cities in Google Maps or Google Earth can be a great way to get a sense of a place leading up to a planned trip, as well as a way to enjoy a vicarious visit to places you’re never likely to visit in person.

Famous landmarks now appearing in 3D include the Tokyo Tower and Tokyo Sky Tree (above). To view in 3D, select satellite view then double-click on a landmark to zoom in until it flips to the 3D view.
