‘OnionMap’ is a cool interactive website with 3-D maps of some of the largest cities in the world. The site has compiled 33 browsable maps with easy to use zooming and navigating tools. In addition, users can simply find local attractions, hotels, shopping, restaurants along with the address and useful other information.
I had fun with ‘OnionMap’ checking out Las Vegas, Paris, New York, Toronto, London and Hong Kong. The site is pretty basic right now, but there’s oodles of potential to become a really useful tool for travellers.
