Look around a place in 360

Everyone All guides

When a place has a 360 photo, its card does not just show a flat picture. You can drag to look around in every direction, as if you were standing there. It is a great way to see what a spot really looks like before you set off.

Find a 360 photo

Open any place to see its card. If that place has a 360 photo, the picture at the top of the card shows a small 360 badge in the corner. That badge is your cue that you can look around, not just view a still image.

Look around

  1. Open the place

    Tap the place on the map, or in the list, to open its card.

  2. Drag inside the photo

    Press and drag on the photo to turn and look around. Drag left or right to spin, up or down to look at the ceiling or the floor.

  3. Explore the whole scene

    Keep dragging to see the full surroundings. The view wraps all the way around, so you can face any direction.

On a phone, drag with one finger inside the photo. On a computer, click and drag with the mouse. If a place shows only a still picture with no 360 badge, that place does not have a 360 photo.

Getting there next

Once you have had a look around, you can head straight for the place. See Get directions to a place.
