Now Street View heads east to provide street level imagery in Japan and Australia.

Google Maps Mania quotes:

The full list of towns that have street view imagery in Japan is:
Osaka, Kobe, Yokohama, Saitama, Chiba, Senda, Sapporo, Hakodate, Kyoto and Tokyo.

Perth, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Hobart, Adelaide, Cairns, Mt Isa, Canberra, Albany, Alice Springs, Rockhampton, Broome, Tamworth, Broken Hill, Karratha and Geraldton

Here’s a google maps street view of the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge in Australia
