When you are walking around a place which you have just visited, it's ideal to search first for the nearest landmark. Typically speaking, you want to look for the best eateries, attraction spots, and other places within the vicinity.

Google is now adding a new update for its travel section which will help the explorers to look for the best places on their trips. Whether you go to a city or province because of a wedding, festival, and other events, the travel section will be your go-to guide if ever you have any queries.

How to Use Google Travel Tool

According to Travel and Leisure, a Google spokesperson says that you can start using the travel section to search for a landmark in a specific location. 

Begin by navigating the search bar to check what hotels are close to your current area. Before that, enter the address on it so that a boundary map will appear.

You have many options to choose from. If you prefer to take a walk or a car trip, it's up to you. You can also explore the interest layers on the map so you can see the best restaurants and shopping centers around you.

If you want to be more specific about your searches, you can simply trim down your preferences in the accommodation search. You can choose a hotel that has amenities such as free breakfast, a spa, space for pets, and others.

If you're worried about your carbon footprints, you can assess the hotel if it's eco-certified or not. Input the schedules for your trip and you're good to go from your humble abode.

Apart from this, the Google travel section receives new improvements that you need to see for yourself such as an explore tool, flight price tracking, using a bookmark icon for reference, and more.
