Burrito Boyz, Mexican restaurant, Toronto, ON, Canada
This photo of a Mexican restaurant was taken almost 3 years ago. And unfortunately, almost a year ago it became a red star. But so far, no other photograph is able to surpass this result.

Caption: @Trail_blazer’s Star Photo of AIIMS CENTRAL LAWN uploaded onto Google Maps on 2022-09-08 and showing star views of 2,725,735 as at 2024-12-28
All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) is one of the oldest and finest hospital in India. Hospital handles crowd from all over the India. This photo is generating more than 4k views a day and I clicked it with my ordinary realme 7 device. The hospital has expanded over time and become quite big so constant mapping is needed . Right direction and exact location is important to reach the desired place for the patients. I mapped, corrected some places and added this star photo as well during my visit in October 2022. I also added many balanced and well shot photos too but this one turned out to be my star photo. By the way this central park is very iconic.

B&Q, Ashton-Under-Lyne, UK
Taken on a grey winter’s day, this uninspiring shot has made it to the top of my most viewed list. For those unfamiliar with B&Q, it is a large store chain in the UK that sells everything a weekend ‘Do it yourself’ enthusiast like myself needs! There’s always a big Q before you get in the door! 
Updated 30/01/24
This has been my Star Photo for several months now and it is certainly not my favourite or best shot, it was taken quickly on a grey day of an uninspiring view.
My second most viewed photo is much nicer (and was at the top of my list for a while) but at only just over nine million views is still in second place on my list of photos.

Fischdeel Land & Meer, Eckernförde, Deutschland 
Dieses Foto wurde aufgenommen als das Restaurant noch geschlossen war.
Leider hochkant, nicht waagerecht. Da mache ich mittlerweile bessere Aufnahmen. Auch ist es saisonal mit den Aufrufen sehr unterschiedlich… derzeit würde ich sagen, dass dieser Stern erlöscht, aber warten wir ab, wie es sich im Frühjahr entwickelt, wenn die Touristen wieder an die See strömen…
Eckernförde liegt an der Ostsee und in den Wintermonaten ist es dort oftmals sehr ungemütlich, regnerisch und sehr, sehr kalt.
Meinen kompletten Beitrag auf Google Maps findet ihr hier.

Ummul Qura University - Makkah, Saudi Arabia
I took this photo from the bus while passing through the university on the way from Mecca to Jabal Rahmah on September 24, 2022. I was lucky to be able to photograph the university building with an interesting angle from a running bus. I thought this was not my best photo. I took this photo using my smartphone, Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1-X00TD. Here’s a link to this POI on Maps.

Tom Colicchio’s Craftsteak, MGM Grand, Las Vegas
Here’s a picture I took inside the MGM Grand in Las Vegas while in town attending the NAB convention. Nothing special, just a shot of the host station at the Tom Colicchio’s Craftsteak steakhouse restaurant. I think I was walking when I snapped the pic on my iPhone 5s. Probably when I was on my way to the MGM buffet. This gained a lot of views when it was the featured pic, but it’s barely getting any now.

This is a screenshot of my current star photo, which replaced my previous star photo, Cortecito Beach. The photo was taken during my second trip to Myanmar. One of the many attractions I experienced during my 3-week stay in Myanmar was a small boat ride on Inle Lake.

Frente de loja popular em Curitiba
Essa foto foi tirada em frente a loja “Safira Armarinhos” na cidade de Curitiba PR - Brasil. Essa loja comercializa vários produtos de linhas, lãs, agulhas e outros objetos de artesanato como crochet, tricot, costuras, entre outros. É uma loja bem popular que fica em frente a um calçadão com um local turístico, onde fica o SESC Paço da Liberdade, em meio a vários casarões de construção do século XIX.
Sempre que vou a passeio na cidade visito essa loja, pois geralmente de promoções de lãs e linhas para fazer croche que eu amo.
Quando tirei essa foto não imaginei que esta seri a minha foto estrela.

Caption: @abermans 's Star Photo of Burrell St Sexual Health Clinic uploaded onto Google Maps on 2022-05-01 and showing star views of 10,863,992 as at 2025-03-31
Burrell Street Sexual Health Clinic, London, UK
When I uploaded my photo of London’s Burrell Street Sexual Health Clinic all those years ago, I never imagined it would rise to prominence as my most-viewed upload to date.
But with over 10 million views, it’s clear this clinic captures significant public interest. Perhaps people find the modern, sterile interior design aesthetically pleasing! Or maybe they’re just really intrigued by the fine selection of informational posters adorning the walls.
Honestly, I was hesitant to document such a sensitive location at first. However, knowing how popular health-related search results are, I took a chance. Turns out my instincts were spot on - this clinic is clearly Londoners’ new favorite hangout spot!
With 3.1 stars on Google, I can understand patrons having mixed feelings about their experience. But a brief awkward consultation is a small price to pay for the instant Maps fame one gains by checking in.
On a more serious note, I’m glad a spotlight can be brought to important community services. While reviews may not pour in like at trendy restaurants, it’s comforting to know this clinic’s doors remain open for all those health-related matters one prefers not discussing over tea.
So whether spicing up date night plans or assisting with more personal needs, the Burrell Street clinic has proven invaluable to many London explorers. Who knew confidentiality could cultivate such popularity!

The Corner Bookstore, New York, NY
This is a photo of the storefront of The Corner Bookstore, located at 1313 Madison Ave, in the Carnegie Hill neighborhood of the Upper East Side of New York City. The photo was taken on 2022-12-04 with an iPhone 14Pro and uploaded the same day. The bookstore has been a beloved destination for book lovers since it first opened its doors in 1978. The photo captures a beautiful display of books in the store’s window, and also features two elderly individuals with a quintessential New York appearance. One is a man walking towards the bookstore entrance with his small dog, while the other is a woman using a walker and admiring the books in the window.

Il Valentino, Cologne, Germany
This photo is one in a series taken in a cosy small restaurant in Cologne we found accidentally. Having liked it, I’ve decided to write a review and add pictures of the food, drinks, and the place. Hard to say why it was the cup of coffee that drew people’s attention among the whole series (the food got 100,000+ views). Taken in 2019 and with the same number of views for a few recent omnths, it’s still my most viewed photo, though some recent pics keep gaining views.
