Which Places would you like to visit in Virginia, USA? 😍 Let's get 1000 likes on this video guys! Also, let us know which US State would you like us to cover next?
I live in Fredericksburg, Virginia which has a lot of historical places to visit as well, such as Washington's boyhood home at Ferry Farm, various battle fields, such as Chancellorsville. Even just exploring downtown Fredericksburg is really nice, with places such as the Rising Sun Tavern, Kenmore, Mary Washington's house, and the Hugh Mercer Apothecary shop. During the winter I go skiing quite a bit at Massanutten. And there are also places like Kings Dominion and Busch Gardens if you like going to theme parks and riding roller coasters. Also no mention of Roanoke? I've only been in Roanoke one time, but I need to explore it more (it is a good 3+ hour drive to get there from my place), though.
I've lived in Virginia most of my life. If you're paying a visit, Richmond is a good "home base" Williamsburg, Bush Gardens, Charlottesville, Jamestown/Yorktown are all pretty close. Plus Richmond itself. Lots of hotels near the airport that are ideal.
Jamestown Settlement (Gallery and replica outdoor sites) and Historic Jamestown (Original site/archaeological dig - Tower & statues) are two completely different museums that sit adjacent to each other. JS is state owned, HJ is federally owned. There is a seperate ticket price for each.
Good choices in a state with an abundance of places to see. I second the comment that Richmond is a good base for many places listed in this video. Glad you featured Richmond's Maymont, which even some Virginians don't know exists! There are some beautiful historic hotels in Richmond, like The Jefferson and The Linden Row Inn, where visitors might want to stay. I'd like to note: Chincoteague: Not "Chin"-co-teeg, but SHIN-co-tig. Iwo Jima: Not "Eye-wo jee-ma" but EE-wo jee-ma. You got it the second time, though! Luray: I heard both LOO-ray and Luh-RAY in the video. People do use both at times but Luh-RAY is more common.
Very nicely done, you covered quite a lot in your video! There's still so much more to do & see in Virginia, that you could do several more videos & still not cover everything!

Virginia is not a small place. It would be very helpful if you can mention where each attraction is located.
12:45 - BAD INFORMATION: Patrick Henry did not give "his famous speech" in Williamsburg. It was at St. John's Episcopal Church in Richmond.
Going to Va in October. Revolutionary fanatic, cant wait.

Kings Dominion and Ashland are not far from Richmond as well.
As a Virginian, I like your top 10. Not all of the info is accurate, though. And man, did you butcher the pronunciation of sooooo many place names.
When he said the Potomac River I almost died. Pot-o-mack. Noooo :P

Absolutely wonderful very good information and review to visit Virginia.👍

Also to add: Potomac is not "Pow-tow-MAC" it is "Pa-TAW-mac".

I'm glad you got the pronunciation of 'Iwo Jima' the second time.
If you cannot pronounce the names of places correctly, stop making content.

Great!
Sorry, Laury Caverns has become a cheap tourist trap. THere are better caverns 30-50 miles to the south.
What are the names of other caverns?
