Things to do in Virginia, United States: The Best Sacred & Religious Sites
Virginia can make American history come alive. Visit Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello, tour Civil War battlefields, explore the living history museum at Williamsburg… the possibilities are endless (if the kids object, break up the historical sightseeing with a visit to Busch Gardens). Arlington, site of Arlington National Cemetery, is just across the Potomac River from all the major sites in D.C. In addition to beaches and historical attractions, Virginia has plenty to offer outdoor enthusiasts. Active families will love the Blue Ridge Highlands, where hiking, canoeing and tubing are just a few of the activities offered. Couples might enjoy a romantic mountain cabin in Virginia after a day of hiking in Shenandoah National Park.

The Blandford Church, sitting atop one of the highest points in Petersburg, features 13 beautiful Tiffany stained glass windows, each one representing a different state of the Confederacy. The artwork is beautiful, and the only question I had was why St.Thomas the Apostle ... famed as Doubting Thomas .... represents Georgia and not the show-me state, Missouri. The accompanying cemetery has some intriguing grave markers and, while Petersburg is best known for its Civil War, Blandford played an important role in the closing phases of the Revolutionary War.

Reviewed By Trelly420 - Queens, United States
I decided to do something new & travel away from my home church to usher in the new year. The Alfred Street Baptist Church family welcomed me as a visitor with sincere warmth and grace! The choir was wonderful, the atmosphere was fantastic and the preached word by Rev. Dr. Howard-John Wesley “The Wait is Over” was the perfect message to start the new year off with. I will visit again.

This stunning church has a rich history which you are able to experience first hand. Sit in George Washington or The Lee Family pews. Attend a service in this still active church, or pay respects in the cemetary.
