Switzerland: I-95 S @ MM 17.6
Few places in South Carolina’s Lowcountry have a history as closely tied to the region’s rural settlement as Switzerland, South Carolina. This small Jasper County community lies on the Atlantic Coastal Plain, a low, wooded part of the state shaped by wetlands and tidal waterways flowing toward the Savannah River. Interstate 95 runs through the area, placing Switzerland on one of the principal north–south routes of the US East Coast. The surrounding Lowcountry belongs to the cultural landscape of the Gullah Geechee people, whose traditions developed among coastal communities of South Carolina and Georgia. Forest, grass verges and the divided highway convey the working, in-transit character of this stretch of the Lowcountry.

Few communities in South Carolina have a history as closely tied to the rural settlement of the Lowcountry as Switzerland. This small locality lies in flat, wooded country near the Savannah River, which forms much of the state boundary with Georgia. The wider Lowcountry has been shaped by tidal waterways, wetlands and rice cultivation; its coastal communities are closely associated with the Gullah Geechee people and their enduring traditions. Switzerland stands apart from the larger urban centres of the coast, reflecting the quiet backroads and river-country character of southern South Carolina.

Among the regions of the United States, South Carolina stands out for its sweep from the Atlantic coast and tidal Lowcountry to the foothills of the Blue Ridge. Its shoreline combines barrier islands, salt marshes and estuaries, with Charleston long established as one of the country’s important Atlantic port cities. Fort Sumter, in Charleston Harbor, is where the American Civil War began in 1861. Farther inland, Congaree National Park protects a notable expanse of old-growth bottomland hardwood forest, while Columbia serves as the state capital.

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.
