| The State of
Virginia is where the capital of the nation resides (sort
of) - Washington D.C. (or you could say, it is next door).
The Western part of Virginia is mountainous, covered by the
Allegheny and Blue Ridge mountains where you can visit
Abingdon, drive Blue Ridge Parkway, stay in Bristol, and
picnic in Cumberland Gap National Historic Park. The great
Shenandoah Valley falling between the ranges offers places
like Lexington, Luray Caverns, Natural Bridge, Roanoke,
Shenandoah National Park, Shenandoah Valley, Skyline Drive,
VMI, and William & Mary Universities. The central
piedmont region, with its rolling hills, plantation and
horse farms offers historic Charlottesville and Monticello,
Danville, and Richmond. Northern Virginia is home to
Alexandria, Arlington and Arlington National Cemetery,
Fredericksburg and Fredericksburg National Battlefield
Parks, Mount Vernon, and Potomac Mills. Central: Chesapeake
Bay / Hampton Roads Region invites you to enjoy beautiful
Colonial Williamsburg, Busch Gardens, Jamestown,
Williamsburg Pottery and Yorktown, Norfolk and Virginia
Beach. Chincoteague/Assateague on the Eastern Shore is a
island in the Atlantic. Throughout Virginia you will find
bed
and breakfast inns and lodging establishments that
equal the charm and beauty of this state. |
