api retrieve points of interest nearby city
api, city, google-places-api, point-of-interest, web-services
Solution
A couple options:
- Foursquare Venues Platform
- Factual Places API
Problem
I am looking for a API/web service for me to retrieve a list of landmarks, points of interest (and their GPS coordinates) near a given city. I tried google places including the query Place Search and type point_of_interest, but the results do not seem satisfactory. For example, to Paris, I need an answer: Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Champs Elysees, ... What would you advise me to find such information.
