Orange: I-5 : (905) SB I-5 JSO SR-57/SR-22
Few places in Southern California have a history as closely tied to citrus cultivation as Orange. The city developed amid groves that once dominated this part of Orange County, while rail connections helped move its agricultural output to wider markets. Its historic core, Old Towne Orange, is centred on Plaza Square, a 19th-century civic space surrounded by commercial buildings and early homes. The district is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and preserves an unusually coherent streetscape from the city’s formative decades. Santiago Creek passes through Orange before joining the Santa Ana River, linking the urban area to the wider watershed of inland Orange County. Today, Orange combines this established core with the broad roads and suburban development characteristic of the Los Angeles metropolitan area.

Old Towne Orange, centered on that plaza, is a National Register of Historic Places district with commercial buildings and homes dating from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Chapman University, founded in 1861 and based in Orange since 1954, brings a collegiate presence close to the historic core.

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.
