WILLIAMSBURG, VIRGINIA
A multitude of attractions await the entire family in Williamsburg, Virginia, which is home to Colonial Williamsburg, the restored 18th-century capital of colonial Virginia and the largest history museum in the United States. Colonial Williamsburg lies within Virginia’s Historic Triangle, which includes Jamestown, site of the first permanent English-speaking colony in North America, and Historic Yorktown, site of the last major battle of the American Revolution.
