The capital of the state of Virginia, Richmond, made it to students’ history books for its importance in the American Civil War. Virginia was, in fact, 1 of the 13 original colonies that were founded by the British on American soil. Richmond became the capital of the state in the late 18th century, and since then, it hasn’t lost its title. Unsurprisingly, the city’s main landmarks are history museums or battleground sites that serve as a collective memory of a not-so-distant past. However, it also offers a couple of art centres and the entertaining Bogey Sports Park. While you’re here, be sure to try oysters, crab, and some local, tasty craft beers. If you’re here for a vacation, why don’t you treat yourself to some amazing spa services? Read on for the top hotels with spa in Richmond, Virginia.
