Richmond Holidays
From skyscrapers to antebellum homes the old and the new stand together in graceful compatibility at Richmond. Formerly the Capital of the Confederacy (the southern states who sought independence from the north) in the Civil War, Richmond is the modern day state capital of Virginia.
The streets are lined with beautifully preserved architecture from the 19th century, including the grand mansions of the Fan district and the State Capitol building, designed by the 3rd US President, Thomas Jefferson.
