Saint Petersburg
Built around the terminus of the Orange Belt Railway, St. Petersburg grew into a waterfront city on Tampa Bay. Interstate 275 crosses the city’s southern edge before continuing over the Sunshine Skyway Bridge to Manatee County; the bridge’s cable-stayed main span is a defining piece of regional infrastructure. The downtown waterfront faces Tampa Bay, while the rest of the city spreads across the Pinellas Peninsula between the bay and the Gulf of Mexico. The settlement took its name from Peter Demens’s Russian birthplace after his railway reached the site in 1888. On the downtown waterfront, the Dalí Museum holds one of the world’s most significant collections of Salvador Dalí’s work outside Europe.

Saint Petersburg’s low, subtropical shoreline on the Pinellas Peninsula lies between Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, a setting that has shaped both its waterfront districts and marine-oriented economy. Downtown faces the bay, where parks, marinas and public promenades trace the water’s edge, while Gulf beaches line the peninsula’s western shore. The Salvador Dalí Museum holds the largest collection of the artist’s work outside Europe, and the nearby Museum of Fine Arts is another important cultural institution. Sunken Gardens, a botanical garden founded in 1903, reflects the city’s long connection with subtropical planting.

Florida occupies a low-lying peninsula in the southeastern United States, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Gulf of Mexico to the west. Lake Okeechobee lies near its centre, and water from this basin historically flowed south through the Everglades, a vast subtropical wetland protected in part by Everglades National Park. The Florida Keys extend southwest from the mainland, while long sandy coasts and inland freshwater systems shape everyday life across the state. St. Augustine, founded by Spain in 1565, is widely recognised as the oldest continuously inhabited European-established settlement in the United States.

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.
