A Google Maps glitch transforms a village into a short-term tourist attraction.
Google Maps does not have to be the most popular navigation app available; however, it is also necessary to use alternatives.
Google Maps is not perfect, though, and we have heard about instances where it has provided directions to places we never would have thought to visit.
It's unfortunate that this has happened again, as a large group of conductors in India were directed by Google Maps to a destination that didn't look much like what I had ordered.
Many tourists in India have used Google Maps to reach Kollur Mookambikase Temple, but unfortunately they were directed to another faraway destination.
The mistake is that Google Maps confuses the temple and sends a group of tourists to another place located 100 km away from Kollur Mookambikase Temple.
Google Maps has identified a smaller temple, also dedicated to the Mookambika deity, as the Kollur Mookambika Temple. Although the names are similar, the confusion has a significant impact.
Google has not yet fixed this bug. The residents of Nandalike have specifically requested that this bug affect tourists as well as the local community, but Google has yet to respond, although it is clear that the bug could be fixed relatively easily by Google.
