 Forward to a friend | Luxury Meets History Williamsburg, Virginia
World-class golf. A spa featuring five centuries of healing arts. Fabulous shopping, good eating, and two phenomenal theme parks—all set against the backdrop of the world’s largest living history museum. This is the magic of Williamsburg, Virginia, a city like no other.
Colonial Williamsburg: The City Where Time Stands Still Time stands still in Colonial Williamsburg, a 301-acre testament to history founded in part by John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Open 365 days per year, Colonial Williamsburg is a living, working city that has been restored to 18th-century splendor. Here, blacksmiths shoe their horses, tavern balladeers serenade passersby, witch trials take place at the courthouse, and wheelwrights handcraft carriage wheels.
Hungry? Savor Pennsylvania Dutch Apple Dumplings or Carolina Fish Muddle from Christiana Campbell’s Tavern. Then top it off with Holiday Wassail from Raleigh Tavern Bake Shop. Experience “Revolutionary City,” a two-hour live outdoor theater program portraying pivotal events that took place during the American Revolution. Shop the historic area, where you can purchase horehound drops and rock candy, craftsmen’s tools, English creamware, and three-corner hats. Browse Market Square, a fantastic open-air market. Venture a little further to Merchant Square, an 18th-century retail village replete with numerous boutiques, specialty shops, galleries, restaurants and bookstores. Then ease your way back into the 21st century with a visit to The Spa of Colonial Williamsburg.

| Spotlight on Alabama The Sweet Home Birthplace of the Civil Rights Movement, To Kill a Mockingbird author Harper Lee, and musician Nat “King” Cole. Land of beautiful waterways, pristine beaches, phenomenal mountains and bustling cities. This Southern state is full of surprises, just waiting to be discovered. From the Gulf Coast, with its sparkling waters and crystal-white sand; to the River Heritage region, boasting two national forests, eight state parks and the Tuskegee Air National Historic site; to the Mountain Lakes, home of unparalleled outdoor recreation opportunities, nearly 50 golf courses and the U.S. Space and Rocket Center; to the state’s Metropolitan centers, complete with the Talladega Superspeedway, the historic Alabama Theatre and the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute, Alabama is a destination not to be missed.
Golf Mecca Golf Digest rated Alabama “one of the top 50 golf destinations in the world,” courtesy of the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail. The largest golf course construction project ever attempted, the Trail incorporates 11 sites, 26 courses and 468 holes—all of which are incorporated into the state’s gorgeous natural setting. One of the Trail’s landmark sites is Ross Bridge, completed in 2006. Here, a waterfall drops 80 feet between the ninth and 18th greens.
