Williamsburg, Virginia

This US place is the best location to go back in time, discover revolutionary delights, and learn about our country’s past. But you can also enjoy modern-day amenities like world-class golf, luxurious spas, and award-winning restaurants.

There are even living-history museums, surprising thrills, hiking, and biking opportunities. The bottom line is that whatever your idea of fun may be, you’ll find it all in Colonial Williamsburg. The greater area contains three iconic sites of American history:

1. Jamestown: The first English colony, which was established in 1607.
2. Yorktown Battlefield: This is where our nation won its independence in 1781 when British forces ultimately surrendered.
3. Colonial Williamsburg: A living history museum where interpreters in period costumes show travelers what it was like living in the town in the 17th century.
