Depends on what you would call a "landmark".

The easiest way is to use the Google Places library. You'll find an introduction here, with a full example for a "search nearby": https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/places

You'll then need to pick the types of places which you would consider landmarks. You'll find the list of possible types here: https://developers.google.com/places/documentation/supported_types
