# Crawler Google Places
Get data from Google Places, which official [Google Maps Places API](https://developers.google.com/places/web-service/search) does not provide.

## Why?
You can use official [Google Maps Places API](https://developers.google.com/places/web-service/search), it is better way for the most use cases.
But API doesn't provide:

- Popular place times histogram
- Place reviews (you can get up to 5 reviews from official API)
- Place photos (you can can up to 10 photos from official API)

## INPUT
Follow guide on [actor detail page](https://www.apify.com/drobnikj/crawler-google-places) to see how it works.

Example input:
```json
{
  "searchString": "pubs near prague",
  "lat": "50.0860729",
  "lng": "14.4135326",

}
```
On this input actor searches places on this start url: https://www.google.com/maps/search/pubs+near+prague/@50.0860729,14.4135326,10z
