you forget to mention sydney! can now actually make out the harbour bridge and opera house
San Salvador, El Salvador was updated too with 3 maps instead of one. The odd thing is one of them is at least 5 years old.
The first map that was small but 2 years old is not available anymore. Bad bad.
Excellent. It'll be cool to see what new sights show up.
BTW, the opera house isn't more visible in Maps, just Earth (it appears).
Are you sure about the update concerning Maps at all?
why are the cook islands on the south eastern coast of china ????
Wow. Just found Seartu, China, by floating around. You gotta check it out. It's a large oil and mineral production city... mindboggling.
Harbin is the major inland city in the northeast portion of Cina (between the Korean Peninsula, Mongolia and Russia). Saertu is NW of Harbin on the rail line. Enjoy.
Anybody found the 5 towns of Stoke on Trent Staffordshire UK home of famous Potteries and unmistakable industries
Or the 3 million in Changzhou Jiansu China between Shanghai and Nanjing
or is a ceramic blank
Also keep finding errors in China is this really aerial or old Maps reenhanced
