Scottsdale
Built around irrigated farmland in the Salt River Valley, Scottsdale grew into a major city in the Phoenix metropolitan area. Loop 101, also called the Pima Freeway, skirts its northern and eastern districts, linking Scottsdale with the wider Valley of the Sun; Hayden Road is one of the principal north–south streets. The McDowell Mountains form the city’s northeastern edge, while the Sonoran Desert remains present in preserves and open land around the urban grid. Scottsdale is associated with Old Town, whose core developed from the late-19th-century settlement founded by Winfield Scott, and with its concentration of galleries, resorts and golf courses.

The city lies in the Sonoran Desert, with the McDowell Mountains rising to the northeast and the extensive McDowell Sonoran Preserve protecting desert trails and habitat at its edge. Old Town Scottsdale retains the historic centre and its Western character, while the Scottsdale Museum of the West presents art and stories of the American West. Galleries and public art add a contemporary layer to streets long associated with the region’s ranching past.

Arizona is renowned in the United States for the Grand Canyon, carved by the Colorado River in the state’s north. Its terrain extends from the Sonoran Desert, where saguaro cacti define the south, to ponderosa pine forests and the high plateaus of the Colorado Plateau. The red-rock country around Sedona and the sandstone buttes of Monument Valley are enduring symbols of the American Southwest. Indigenous heritage remains central: Arizona is home to 22 federally recognized tribes, including the Navajo Nation and Hopi Tribe. Historic Route 66 also passes through northern communities such as Flagstaff and Kingman. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Arizona.

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.
