Casemate Museum on Fort Monroe in Hampton is free. Hampton University Museum is free. The beaches are all free, you have to pay for parking at Virginia Beach. Lots of wildlife and nature preserves and bird sanctuaries. Virginia is for lovers <3

As a fairly new Virginian, I love what you have done. We live near Jefferson's Monticello and enjoy seeing all the historical places nearby. There are battlefields and many hiking trails. Thanks for doing this.Kyle.

Kyle... just a thought ... you would make an INCREDIBLE History professor!! I LOVE your views!

As someone who has been a local in Virginia for 23 years, you missed alot of good things that are free.
One place I believe everyone should visit, is Colonial Williamsburg. It is free to go around and see the buildings and some events, it only cost money when they are doing tours in all of the buildings.

Great video and as a life long Virginian I know some of those areas and I learned of others. I will add that the Appomattox National Park has a number of good walking trails and they are well marked. I've walked them many times.

Explore.Always! Love the name change! This video was awesome. That giant floating ball was mesmerizing! All that history, and that’s what intrigued me. Lol! Well that and the ugly potato building! Another great job in 3 days!!

While visiting mini Graceland I hope u went to Mill Mountain Star on the mountain above mini Graceland. It is absolutely free and one of the best views you will ever see overlooking the city during the day it's beautiful but hang out for the sunset then the true magic once the sun goes down seeing the city illuminated is amazing it's like looking down on the stars and the giant illuminated star is a great photo op. Especially during patriotic holidays when it is changed to Red White and Blue. It is one of the most visited places on the Blue Ridge Parkway and we'll worth the drive up there, there is also 2 giant bicycles statues, a second over look, nature trails, playground and picnic shelter and the Mill Mountain Zoo. Check it out if u are even in the Star city again

Thanks for taking the time to put this together. I'm liking exploring places I can't fly to during lockdown in London.

Okay, the arm burial is a little much haha. But so interesting. Thinking of adding “mini Graceland” to our Roanoke trip

Very interesting. I had my elementary school picnic in the Appomattox Manor area many years ago.
