Portsmouth is a historic seaport city located on the Piscataqua River in New Hampshire. Founded in 1623, it is one of the oldest cities in the United States and served as a significant maritime hub during the colonial period.
The city's rich cultural heritage is reflected in its well-preserved architecture, with numerous buildings dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries. The downtown area, known for its brick buildings and cobblestone streets, showcases the city's colonial past while maintaining a vibrant contemporary arts and cultural scene. Portsmouth's maritime history is particularly evident in its preserved working seaport and naval heritage, including the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard (actually located across the river in Kittery, Maine).
The city has maintained strong connections to its past while evolving into a center for arts, culture, and education in New Hampshire's Seacoast region.
