Old Town Alexandria Virginia is one of the most charming cities in America. If you're looking for a place to kind of relax outside of D.C., then check out Alexandria.

Great video! I delivered wine and beer in Alexandria and surrounding area for about 5 years. So many great spots out there… I loved The Chart House (water views), Virtue Feed & Grain, Chadwick’s, Landini Bros…. Planet Wine is my favorite little wine shop. All those parks on the water…. Glad y’all enjoyed!!!

Alexandria seems charming. What a beautiful time to visit to see the leaves change ...and the Halloween decorations.

You are right about bringing the stretchy pants😆 sounds like there are tons of food and drink options.

Alexandera does look so charming. The food looks delicious but my favorite are the pretty colorful buildings. Lol that sandwich was super hot 🥵 😂 love the holiday decor. The trolleys is a nice touch.

[CarlosGomez-ghkg]

Dope! Me and my wife will definitely come check it out when we're in Virginia later this year.

Such great production quality. It feels like I'm watching something from The Travel Channel

Thanks for the video. Loved living in Old Town Alexandria. Lots of good places to eat, close walk to the Metrorail and Amtrak, great atmosphere. We still visit every once in a while; only 30 miles from our current home.

[hannahrozenberg]

I’m in love! Definitely must visit someday!

[Outlawes]

Love the name of your channel… just off that I feel like we’d really get along! We’ve also never even heard of Alexandria but you’ve managed to paint it in such an awesome light. Awesome job… looking forward to seeing more 🙌

This channel will get more views. Underrated

[alexandra-qum]

I want to try your food after you said that! No cap.

[SittinginaTree]

Wait ..as many times as I've been to Alexandria (even lived there) I never knew about the narrowest house

[tutujohnson]

From a person who live in Alexandria all their life I can explain. Alexandria is solely for families or retired people. It was a cute place to take ur high school dates at but their is no night life. The restaurant there are nice and its so fun when summer times they have events but its rlly not all that when DC is a bridge away. If ur in ur 20s trying to have fun old town is not the place. Not much of franchises in the area which is unique about it. I would say it is beautiful but maybe cause I lived there for so long it doesn't impress me anymore
