Planning a trip is fun, but it's not easy. We spend hours gathering pieces of information from 100's of sites, most of them useless. The web has empowered us, but now we're overloaded by dead-ends and commercial opportunism.
openplaces is a search engine for travel that helps put all the pieces together.
openplaces is a project to build the world's largest organized repository of maps, pictures, details, and advice about every place in the world that anyone has ever travelled to. Anyone can contribute.
