Corona: SR-71 : (418) 0.5 Mi N/O SR-91
Corona is best known within California for Grand Boulevard, the circular avenue that gave the city its long-standing “Circle City” nickname. The city occupies a transport corridor at the northwestern edge of Riverside County, where State Route 91 carries traffic between the Inland Empire and Orange County. The Santa Ana Mountains rise to the south and west, while the Santa Ana River corridor and broad inland basin have shaped local settlement and industry. Corona developed from an 1880s town originally called South Riverside; its later name, Spanish for “crown,” echoed the circular plan of Grand Boulevard. Today, residential districts, commercial areas and freeway interchanges make it an important urban link between inland Southern California and the coastward counties.

Corona straddles the meeting of the Santa Ana Mountains and the Inland Empire plain in Southern California, a position that turned a citrus-growing settlement into a major residential and business centre within the greater Los Angeles area. The mountains rise along the city’s southwestern side, while valley routes connect Corona with Orange County and Riverside County. Incorporated in 1896 after being known as South Riverside, Corona took its name from the Spanish word for “crown”; its circular Grand Boulevard inspired the nickname Circle City and hosted early automobile races.

The state includes both Mount Whitney, the highest point in the contiguous United States, and extensive protected lands such as Yosemite National Park. California’s cities have exerted worldwide influence through film, technology, agriculture, and music; Hollywood remains an enduring symbol of the American screen industry. Its scale means climates and local character can change dramatically from one county to the next. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of California.

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.
