          There is enough history and natural beauty in Virginia to satisfy the most avid sightseer. In eastern Virginia is the old capital, Williamsburg, a living museum of the colonial era. To its west, the skyline Drive reveals the spectacular beauty of the Shenandoah National park and the Blue Ridge mountains. The state capital, Richmond, retains a charming Old South aura.
