Bing: Bird’s Eye View of Helsinki

Bing’s Maps have a cool feature that Google Maps not: Bird’s Eye View. Photos are made from with Hot Air Ballons with a 40º angle so you can have better perspective of the city than Satellite’s straight down view.

You can see many main cities of Europe. These are two examples:

helsinki

Also, related to this is the project 360º Cities, panoramic views from street level of many cities.
