Williamsburg, Virginia
A trip to Williamsburg, Virginia provides the rare
opportunity of literally stepping into history while
still enjoying all the modern comforts of home. The
area’s biggest attraction is America’s Historic
Triangle, which is made up of: Historic Jamestowne, the
first permanent English settlement in the New World, the
Yorktown Battlefield, site of the last major battle of
the American Revolutionary War and of course Colonial
Williamsburg, world’s largest living history museum.
Colonial Williamsburg is a treat for history buffs and
younger students of American history. It is a
re-creation of 18th-century Williamsburg comprised of
301 acres of historic buildings and gardens where
costumed docents pursue their trades and depict aspects
of Colonial life. You can visit the blacksmith, take
part in the everyday life of the city and interact with
its citizens while large “streetscape” performances take
place as well as smaller demonstrations.
Once you’re done walking through history, you can step
aboard the latest high-tech thrill rides and roller
coasters at Busch Gardens Europe. One of the newest
rides is the Griffon, the world’s first floorless and
world’s tallest dive coaster which carries you 205 feet
in the air and then comes straight down at 75 mph.
Other attractions in the area include Water Country USA,
Go-Karts Plus, Williamsburg Pottery and the Williamsburg
Winery. |
