Introduction
When at age 17 George Washington surveyed the land that would become his hometown, he could not have imagined the glorious future for which he was laying the foundation. His tiny hometown grew into Alexandria, Virginia, a picturesque community with a rich history now considered one of the country's most desirable places to live, work - and visit!
Today it it’s the city’s ambience and historic significance combined with its urban sophistication that set Alexandria apart. Old Town, the third oldest historic district in the country, welcomes visitors with bustling shops and restaurants along cobblestone streets as nearby stately homes remain seemingly untouched by time.
Alexandria welcomes visitors with the opportunity to step into the pages of history, to not just read about our founding fathers, but to dance where they danced, shop where they shopped, worship where they worshipped. We invite you to visit the attractions and historic sites that will bring these figures to life.
