In Southern Virginia, you won't forget you're in the south. Nevertheless,
the culture is as thick as the accent. You'll find beaches, theme parks, and
some very good southern cooking. The Shenandoah Valley is loaded with trails
for biking and hiking or even a nice drive along the Blue Ridge mountains.
Richmond is the capital and Norfolk the largest city.
If you're thinking about planning a trip to Virginia, don't forget the East
Coast's best kept secret: Virginia Beach! Touted by the Guiness Book of
World Records as the "Longest Pleasure Beach," this family friendly travel
destination should not be missed.
_________Things to do
Edit This
The most important thing to do in any city is shopping, right? In Chesapeake
there is an adorable gift shop where most of the items are handcrafted
either by local artists or via the Fair Trade. Of course they have other
things too, but the handcrafted things are the best! It's perfect for
souvenir shopping. It's easy to find from Virginia Beach, Norfolk, or
Portsmouth, so no matter where you are visiting, give it a go!
They are located at 1464 Mt Pleasant Rd #14, Chesapeak VA |
