Jefferson's Monticello

Encounter history at every turn in Virginia. From Thomas Jefferson's Monticello to Colonial Williamsburg to Jamestown, where the first settlers struggled to create a new life, Virginia is a place to discover America's roots. 

Centrally located on the Eastern Seaboard, Virginia's cities, such as Alexandria and Richmond, offer business travelers cosmopolitan style with gracious charm and elegance. World-class entertainment and nightlife are also abundant in any Virginia city. 

But if you're looking to truly escape from the hectic pace of city life, there's always relaxation waiting in the soothing Blue Ridge foothills, in the Chesapeake Bay's rural villages and at Virginia Beach, where you can golf, play tennis and stroll the beach at your own leisurely pace.

Prince William County and Manassas County, just minutes from Washington D.C., offers many golfing, shopping and outdoor opportunities. Go fishing, canoeing, hiking, biking or camping! www.visitpwc.com

The Blue Ridge Mountains serve as a backdrop for Roanoke County, a place where beautiful surroundings, a high quality of life, busy commerce and strong economic development attract both residents and visitors. Roanoke County is home to twelve public parks and hosts over one thousand recreational programs a year, including Valley Fest in June, which features hot air balloons and live music. www.co.roanoke.va.us

Virginia Beach - All kinds of fun any time of year with wide beaches and a famous oceanfront boardwalk, ecological treasures and championship golf. The beautiful seaside resort city is the home of the Virginia Marine Science Museum, one of the nation's most attended aquariums. www.vbfun.com
