Waco: I35@Forrest
Waco occupies the Brazos River valley in central Texas. Interstate 35 cuts through the city as one of the state's principal north-south corridors, placing everyday traffic beside commercial districts and established neighbourhoods. The Brazos has long shaped Waco's settlement and public spaces; the Waco Suspension Bridge, opened in 1870, was once the longest single-span suspension bridge west of the Mississippi. The bridge now carries pedestrians and cyclists across the river near downtown. Baylor University has been based here since 1886, while Dr Pepper was first served in Waco in 1885. Transport, education and local invention give the city a distinct central-Texas identity.

The landscape around Waco is a low, open reach of the Blackland Prairie beside the Brazos River, which has shaped both the city’s river crossings and its agricultural hinterland. The Brazos runs through the centre, with the 1870 Waco Suspension Bridge linking its banks; it was Texas’s first suspension bridge and remains a defining civic landmark. Waco is also home to Baylor University, founded in 1845 and established in the city in 1886, whose campus and athletics give the city a strong college-town presence. Another local legacy is Dr Pepper, first created in Waco in 1885. Explore additional webcams around central Texas to expand your view of the Brazos River country.

The terrain of Texas ranges from pine forests in the east to deserts and mountain ranges in the west, creating striking contrasts in climate, vegetation, and settlement. The state also stretches from the Gulf of Mexico coast to the High Plains, with the limestone hills of the Hill Country lying between. The Rio Grande forms much of Texas’s border with Mexico and has long shaped its geography and cross-border connections. Austin, the state capital, is a major centre for music and technology, while San Antonio’s Alamo recalls the 1836 battle central to Texas history. Ranching traditions, Mexican and Indigenous heritage, and a vast road network give the state a distinctly varied character.

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.
