Little Rock Maps and Orientation
(Little Rock, Arkansas - AR, USA)
Sited next to the geographical heart of Arkansas and to the north of Pine Bluff, the city of Little Rock is the proud state capital. Little Rock is also the biggest city in the state of Arkanas and serves as the seat of Pulaski County.
The city is based on the southerly side of the Arkansas River, with the creeks of both Fourche and Rock meandering their way through central Little Rock. Providing an imposing backdrop, the Ouachita Mountains stand to the west, while the Pinnacle Mountain dominates the city's northwesterly outskirts, along with Lake Maumelle.
Tourists looking to familiarise themselves with the layout of Little Rock should grab a map and head to the River Market district, which is the perfect place for a stroll, being at its best around President Clinton Avenue and West Markham Street.
