Now, For street view, just go to the left-bottom side tab of the Google Earth, Layers, and in the Layers section you will see a box called “street view”-click it to enable the street view. Using mouse, you have to point to any country or location where you want to visit and double click your left mouse button to magnify the globe, magnifying is also possible by scrolling the mouse forward. A single left-click will stop magnifying the globe. In the way of magnifying if you see the name of the city you are looking for, just double click the city name and enter the city map.
