Palm Beach Gardens

Palm Beach Gardens straddles the boundary between inland wetlands and Florida’s Atlantic coastal plain, a setting that has shaped it into a spread-out city of residential districts, golf courses and commercial boulevards. The Loxahatchee River runs just north of the city, while the Atlantic shoreline and Lake Worth Lagoon define the wider Palm Beach County coast. Golf is central to its public identity: PGA National Resort’s Champion Course hosts the Cognizant Classic, a PGA Tour event. The Gardens Mall and the city’s dining and retail districts add an urban counterpoint to the waterways and preserves nearby.

Florida occupies a low-lying peninsula in the southeastern United States, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Gulf of Mexico to the west. Lake Okeechobee lies near its centre, and water from this basin historically flowed south through the Everglades, a vast subtropical wetland protected in part by Everglades National Park. The Florida Keys extend southwest from the mainland, while long sandy coasts and inland freshwater systems shape everyday life across the state. St. Augustine, founded by Spain in 1565, is widely recognised as the oldest continuously inhabited European-established settlement in the United States.

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.
