How to get all the department stores present in a city in android using google places?

Question

Hi I have developed an app which uses google-places API to get the list of nearby department stores. This works perfectly and I am using this tutorial to get the places, but now I need to add one more functionality to this ie; is it possible to get the details of all the department stores present in a particular city, if so how to do this.

If it is not possible, how to go about it. I have searched the internet, but I have not able to find anything useful.

To summarize I need to have 3 buttons in my app. 
1. Displays the map which displays the nearby department stores.
2. Displays the nearby stores in the form of a list.
3. Displays the list of stores in a particular city.

I am new to Android and don't understand how to do all the above. I would appreciate if anyone can guide me or post some tutorials.

Thanks.

I think it is better to maintain another database( your own ) for your app. In your database store all types of information including latitude and longitude. Then query on your database from your app. you can use JSON parser to retrieve data from database.

Happy Coding
