Google Search With Wider Images For Some Travel Queries

"Google looks to be testing a new image-design on the search layout. For travel/trek queries like Badimalika, visuals are getting pushed higher than the usual blue links."

"Google Search may have rolled out an update for the images it shows in the search results All tab. For some queries, Google is showing a full-width image pack, but with only four wider images, not the five images that we saw before."

Google appears to be testing modifications to its image display format in search results. The update involves changing the image pack layout to show four wider images instead of the standard five images previously displayed. This change is particularly noticeable for travel and trek-related queries, where visual content is being positioned higher in the search results, above traditional blue text links. The modification aims to give images greater prominence in the search interface. While the exact rollout status remains unclear, multiple users have reported observing this new layout, suggesting Google is actively testing this design variation across different query types.
