Planning a Trip to China - Can I Trust Google Maps?
I'm planning a trip to China next month, and I’ve noticed that Google Maps doesn’t seem to align properly with the satellite imagery. I remember experiencing a similar issue when I visited Beijing 10 years ago, my location pin was always slightly off. Is this problem limited to major cities, or is Google Maps fully unreliable throughout China?
Streets in Shanghai are going a bit south-east compared to the aerial photos
