Lewiston is a historic city located in north central Idaho at the confluence of the Snake and Clearwater rivers. As the first capital of Idaho Territory in 1863, the city holds significant historical importance in the region. Named after Meriwether Lewis of the Lewis and Clark Expedition, Lewiston serves as a gateway to the ancestral lands of the Nez Perce people, whose rich cultural heritage remains an important part of the area's identity.

The city's position as Idaho's only seaport, despite being 465 miles inland from the Pacific Ocean, has contributed to its development as a regional commercial center. The surrounding area features distinct geological formations carved by prehistoric floods and basalt flows, creating a unique landscape that tells the story of both natural and human history in the Pacific Northwest.

The city maintains several historical sites and cultural institutions that preserve and showcase its diverse heritage, from its Native American roots to its role in early Western expansion and development.
