100 Best Things to Do in Virginia 2/20

Virginia is a beautiful state with a long history. You’ll find places that are tied to the original settlement of the country, the Revolutionary and Civil Wars, as well as beautiful state parks and modern museums.

 

6. Arlington National Cemetery (Fort Meyer)

The military cemetery is a way to pay respects to the soldiers who fought for our country. There are many heroes buried here – from Civil War nurses to presidents to astronauts. There are daily bus tours as well as an app with information to help take a self guided walking tour. Spend an hour or so of your time here to pay your respects to our fallen heroes.

 

7. Virginia Aquarium (Virginia Beach)

With three different pavilions, a hands on exhibit, and a 3D movie theater, there’s plenty to see at the Virginia Aquarium. There’s otters, sea turtles, and sharks as well as a climbing adventure park, boat rides with whale watching, tree houses, and a classic move on the big screen every Saturday night. You’ll need 3-4 hours here to see the aquarium and play outside, but allow yourself a bit longer if you want to take a boat tour or stick around for the movie.

 

8. Maymont (Richmond)

Maymont has a little something for everyone. The Maymont Mansion was built in 1893 and offers guided tours several time a day. There’s also a carriage collection, the beautiful gardens, and wildlife exhibits including goats, sheep, pigs, and cows at the children’s farm as well as bears, bobcats, and vultures at the nature center. If you want to see everything, it will take about 3-4 hours.

 

9. King Neptune Statue (Virginia Beach)

The King Neptune sculpture sits at the entrance to an outdoor venue known as Neptune’s Park. This 34 feet high bronze statues makes for a perfect photo op when on the boardwalk. Stop by and take a quick selfie.

 

10. Luray Caverns (Luray)

Luray Caverns are the largest caverns in the eastern US and has guided tours through the paved walking paths. Several formations are featured, including the stalacpipe organ, an eerie underground musical experience not to be missed. Tours will take about 2 hours but there is so much to do here, including a garden maze, winery, the Luray Singing Tower, and a cafe. You could spend a whole day if you wanted to do everything.
