Sightseeing in South Africa

Posted by Philipp Hirtz, Engineering Manager, Google Earth

If your 're dreaming of traveling to beautiful South Africa you can now enjoy the newly launched South Africa Tourism layer in Google Earth. Together with South Africa Tourism, the layer allows you to discover more about the country's highlights. You can learn about the heritage and culture of the region before touching base with the urban vibes of the different cities. If your interest is more about the countryside and wildlife then you can explore the nature and safari layers, or if you're a sports fan then check out the locations of the 2010 FIFA World Cup. You can also enjoy virtual tours, create an itinerary, or take a flight along the proposed routes to plan your next vacation.
