Laconia: Pine Island

Laconia occupies a lakeside corridor between Lake Winnisquam and Paugus Bay, an arm of Lake Winnipesaukee, in New Hampshire's Lakes Region. The Winnipesaukee River runs through the city, linking its industrial past to the surrounding chain of lakes. Built beside the river in 1823, the brick Belknap Mill is a surviving textile-mill landmark and now serves as a museum and community venue. At Weirs Beach on Lake Winnipesaukee, the annual Laconia Motorcycle Week brings a long-running motorcycling tradition to the city each June.

New Hampshire occupies a mountainous inland position in the northeastern United States. The White Mountains define much of its northern character, culminating at Mount Washington, whose summit is famed for severe and rapidly changing weather. Southward, the Merrimack River links former mill cities including Manchester and Nashua, while Lake Winnipesaukee anchors the Lakes Region with wooded shores and island-dotted water. The state’s compact scale brings ski country, forest roads, historic seaports and New England town centres within reach of one another. Granite quarrying helped give New Hampshire its familiar nickname, the Granite State. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across New Hampshire.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
