Step into the past and see how America began at Colonial Williamsburg, an educational
and exciting destination for the entire family.
On a Williamsburg vacation, you can visit some of the many structures from the colonial
period reconstructed on their original sites. Authentic colonial homes, a town jail
(with authentic stocks), taverns, and shops are among the buildings you can view here.
Want to take on a more active role? You can. "The Revolutionary City" is a daily,
two-hour event where you can play a role in the shaping of a new America.
Just down the road you'll find the Jamestown Settlement, where the all aspects of
life and culture of America's first permanent colonists - and the Powhatan Indians
they encountered - is explored. Yorktown completes "America's Historic Triangle,"
and offers guided tours of the battlefield where General Cornwallis was forced to
surrender to General Washington and his combined American and French forces.
But history isn't the only attraction on a Williamsburg getaway. Nearby Busch Gardens
offers modern thrill rides for the whole family. Plus, Virginia Beach is only about
an hour's drive away.
