Monterey Park: I-210 : (756) Hill-Maple
Pasadena lies along the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains, where the Los Angeles Basin gives way to the range’s steep southern front. Interstate 210 crosses its northern neighborhoods, including the Hill Avenue and Maple Street area, linking Pasadena with communities across the San Gabriel Valley. The city developed as a late-19th-century resort town and is now known internationally for the annual Tournament of Roses Parade, first held in 1890. Caltech, founded in Pasadena in 1891, remains a major center for science and engineering. The older civic core around Colorado Boulevard contrasts with residential streets and broad freeway corridors nearer the mountains.

Monterey Park straddles the western margin of the San Gabriel Valley in Southern California, and its location between the Los Angeles Basin and the San Gabriel Mountains has shaped it as a dense, connected suburban city. Incorporated in 1916, it grew from agricultural land into a community closely tied to greater Los Angeles. Monterey Park is widely associated with its Chinese American community, whose restaurants, bakeries and markets give commercial streets such as Atlantic Boulevard a distinctly trans-Pacific character. Parks and residential neighborhoods occupy the city’s low hills and valley floor.

California occupies a long Pacific coastal belt in the United States. Its terrain ranges from the Sierra Nevada and the fertile Central Valley to deserts in the southeast and the rugged shores of the Pacific Ocean. The state includes both Mount Whitney, the highest point in the contiguous United States, and extensive protected lands such as Yosemite National Park. California’s cities have exerted worldwide influence through film, technology, agriculture, and music; Hollywood remains an enduring symbol of the American screen industry. Its scale means climates and local character can change dramatically from one county to the next. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of California.

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.
