Markham: I-66 - MM 18.9 - EB
The rolling Virginia Piedmont defines the setting of Markham — wooded ridges, pastureland and open roadside verges give this Fauquier County community a rural character. Interstate 66 runs beside Markham, carrying long-distance traffic between Washington, D.C., and the Shenandoah Valley while leaving the settlement itself small in scale. The Blue Ridge Mountains rise farther west, marking the transition toward the valley. Fauquier County is closely associated with Virginia’s equestrian country, and horse farms remain part of the landscape and local identity. Markham provides a sense of northern Virginia beyond the capital region’s dense urban corridor.

Markham lies along Virginia Route 55 in Fauquier County’s Piedmont, where working farmland extends toward the Blue Ridge Mountains to the west. This small unincorporated community occupies a rural stretch of northern Virginia between the Washington, D.C., area and the Shenandoah Valley, with local roads passing fields and wooded slopes. The 19th-century Manassas Gap Railroad helped connect communities on the route toward Front Royal, reflecting the transport links that shaped this part of the state. Markham is well placed for an unhurried look at Fauquier County’s countryside and the roads leading toward the mountains.

Among the regions of the United States, Virginia stands out for its sweep from the Blue Ridge Mountains to the Chesapeake Bay. Its varied terrain includes the Shenandoah Valley, the Piedmont of the central counties, and a long Atlantic-facing coast. Richmond, on the James River, is Virginia’s capital and a major centre of American Civil War history; farther east, Jamestown was the site of England’s first permanent settlement in North America, founded in 1607. Shenandoah National Park and its Skyline Drive trace the crest of the Blue Ridge. Move on to other webcams in the region to compare landscapes and settings around Virginia.

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.
