In my iPhone App I am using MKMapKit. Currently I am plotting places on map according to the results get from Google Place API, but as per Google's doc I must use this values only in google Maps. Unfortunately from iOS 6, MKMapKit will go to Apple Map itself.

Is there any Apple API like google Place Search API?

Now I am using URLs like this:

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/search/json?location=10.0036830,74.318723&rankby=distance&types=restaurant&sensor=false&key="my API Key"
