Here in Virginia, we have so much to be grateful for. Living where we do gives us unique privileges that no everyone else in the U.S. can enjoy. Be they natural attractions, a unique way of living, or something else altogether, there are certain things we can thank our lucky stars for. Here are just a few of them:
The Eastern Shore and proximity of the Chesapeake Bay are two of Virginia's crown jewels. This unique landscape is not only beautiful, it's remarkably fragile and our responsibility to take care of it.
Idyllic pastoral views such as the one above aren't hard to come by in Virginia. Whether you choose to build a house on a farm or stop by one of the friendly local businesses that supports them, agriculture is a wonderful privilege of life in Virginia.

Even if you live in the very southwestern corner of Virginia, you don't have to drive too far to enjoy the beautiful coast. Virginia Beach offers a gorgeous escape any time of year, and if you venture in the winter, you'll have the added perk of beating the crowds.

Virginia's hiking trails are among the best in the world. No matter the terrain, you can rest assured that the views will be exquisite. We also have the largest portion of the famous Appalachian Trail, which can be enjoyed as a thru-hike or a quicker day trip.
There's no other living historic site in the world quite like Historic Jamestown. Whether you're on a field trip or visiting on your own accord, there's so much history to be learned at this noteworthy landmark.
