Should be able to do that with your 2547.

Do a Where to then in the box top right select search near and select your favourite or whatever. Then for POIs near that tap on Categories and choose the category or whatever you wish. You'll then get the searches around that location.


that works thanks..but when i get the list of local POI how do I see them on the map as the only choice that i see is to route to it

If you tap on the circle with the i in it (left of Go) that will show you the map with the POI marked on it.

Also note if you tap on Routes (far left) your nuvi will then give you a choice of routes (if there is a choice) to get there.
