PLACES IN VIRGINIA YOU NEED TO SEE BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE
The 400th anniversary of the founding of Jamestown reminded us that Virginia is full of intriguing places.
We have the beach and the mountains, destinations rich in fun, history and natural beauty.
With that in mind, we selected 10 spots across the commonwealth to put on your list of must-see places.
This is not necessarily a list of Top 10 Places -- just 10 Really Good Ones. Some of our destinations are obvious, some less so. A few will be pretty hard to get to. All, however, are worthy and are distinctly Virginian.
On the map below, click on a dot next to a place you want to see and you'll get links to a slideshow and story about that place. (With each story, there is also a "hidden gem" sidebar.)
Enjoy!
