Google said that more cities will be available in the coming months, including Florence, Venice, Amsterdam and Dublin.Īlong with improved language and search tools, Immersive View is one of the many features to emerge from Google's heavy investment in AI. Starting on Wednesday, you can use Immersive View to explore London, Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York and Tokyo.

When the company first announced Immersive View last year at its I/O developer conference, it said the feature would be available in late 2022.
