Abstract
Provided are techniques for image search for a location. Street view data is extracted to identify a path for a region. Points of interest for the path are identified. Images for the points of interest for a direction of the path are identified. The images are used to create a sequence of images representing a view of the points of interest along the direction of the path. The sequence of images are displayed adjacent to a map that includes the path.
