Soccer fans who haven’t made it to Brazil for the start of the World Cup can catch a glimpse of the color and spirit of the streets by checking out Google Street View.
The search engine’s camera vans went on a tour of the host cities (Manaus, Sao Paulo, Belo Horizonte, Rio de Janeiro and others) to capture the street art painted to welcome the World Cup.
The vivid images will be preserved online long after the U.S. has emerged victorious! 🙂
