How to do window shopping in a city using Google Earth via street view?

Going to another country might pose a few problems, especially if you have never been to that country before. Questions in our mind will include how's the public transport system?, how far is the airport to the city center? Where is the main shopping areas? How's the main shopping mall or shops look like? Is it easy to find restaurants? The questions will go on and on.

Nonetheless, those questions can be answered without going to that country or before going to that country or the city center of the country to be visited.  One of the useful tools or indispensable tools that is available nowadays is Google Earth. You can download the software which is currently at version 6.

Going back to the topic 'how to do window shopping in a city using Google Earth via street view?'

I will show you step by step on how you can do that. First of all, here is the main Google Interface by default.




Notice the navigation controls at the top right hand corner of the screen.

In order to be in a street view, a Pegman icon will appear at the place/location that you want to go for example a city.

1. So let start, once you are at the main interface of the Google Earth, type the place that you want to go to at the Fly to box on the top left hand corner of the screen. Example in this case, the city  is London in England and initial location is Picadilly Circus.



2. Then go to the Find business and type Picadilly circus. The screen will look like the following:



3. At this stage, if you move your mouse to the navigation control, you will see the Pegman icon appear on the top right hand corner of the screen below the navigation controls.


4. Point your mouse to the Pegman icon and drag it to the center of the screen. While in the process of dragging the Pegman icon as shown below, blue lines on the street will appear.



5. Once you drop the Pegman to the street in any of the blue line, the screen will change.</div>



Now you are on the street already at the Picadilly Circus area. Note the yellow line. That is very important which I will show you later. At this stage, it shows the route where the street view is available, as though you are driving in a vehicle along that street.
Use the navigation controls at the top (with circle and N for North)    to go 360 degree rotation (left, right, up, down) to see the surrounding areas. Isn't it cool? Without going to that area/place/location, you already know how the area/place/location looks like. The navigation control at the bottom (without the circle N) is to go Forward, Back Direction, Left and right.
Next step will be posted later or you can visit http://whatdoyouhavetoday.blogspot.com

At the mean time, you can do that for Kuala Lumpur (not like London Picadilly Circus!).However, you can combining 3D view for Twin Tower.
