Can I use Google Earth to view the inside of a building?

Community Answer

In some buildings you can but for most buildings you can't. You should try Google Maps, they allow you to see the inside of every restaurant and building.

Use the arrows to move up a street. If you don't see any arrows, try it in a different street.

Street View captures only publicly accessible roads. Private areas like driveways are not included unless the property owner has shared specific imagery. To see your driveway, you need to upload your own photos or videos to Google Maps or use personal devices.
