Well you can find fantastic hotels of great luxury all over Virginia including on this site www.virginialuxuryhotels.com. This is a state you could spend a lot of time in and never see all the history associated with it. There are some specific sights to see that would cover a lot of the history like a trip to Mount Vernon, home of George Washington. This is one place that seems to grow all the time. The exhibits get better as time goes on and the experience is even richer. They have collected up items from all over the east coast that belonged to the Washington’s and brought them back to the home they started in. Some how things like fine art, books and manuscripts that belonged to the Washington’s were taken away from the home and for the past 150 years there have been people collecting them up and bringing them back.

At Mount Vernon you can learn all sorts of public and private details of George Washington and his lovely wife Martha Washington. They had quite a life together and so much of it has be recaptured here on this 8,000 acre plantation that is divided into 5 different farms. Each farm had it own workforce, overseer, livestock, equipment and buildings. The Washington’s lived in the Mansion House Farm which is were visitors visit today. Washington designed and landscaped the property with specific ideals in mind and he created a beautiful country gentlemen style home. All of the grounds have been maintained for a hundred and fifty years so that visitors could come and see the grandeur of the place where their first president lived. All the little details of the place are really impressive. Not to bring up a dirty subject but the Necessary aka Toilet room is rather interesting and built with awareness of the sanitation on the property. It is all a must see really.
