如果您仔细阅读，您会发现需要使用新端点：

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?address={0}

你必须使用Google Maps&放置API以获得两个地方之间的距离。请查看以下链接，了解如何：

I have used the following code, but http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q={0}&output=xml, always returns null. Is there any other way to do it?

If you load the XML in the browser, you'll see the following error message:

The Geocoding API v2 has been turned down on September 9th, 2013. The Geocoding API v3 should be used now. Learn more at https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/[^]

If you follow the link, you'll see a page with details on upgrading to v3:
https://developers.google.com/maps/articles/geocodingupgrade[^]

If you read through that, you'll find that you need to use the new endpoint:

"https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?address={0}"

You have to use Google Maps & Places API to get the distance between two places. Check the link below on how to:
