6) Virginia
“Virginia is for Lovers” the slogan boasts. If you’ve never been there, what exactly does that mean? For Virginians, it refers to all the ways love lives in their wonderfully beautiful state. Here, you can leave your troubles behind and wash away the world on their pristine beaches. Or dance the night away with Virginia Beach’s nightlife. In the morning take a stroll on the 3-mile boardwalk and visit the Aquarium. Witness some of the world’s most spectacular views on The Blueridge Parkway and Skyline Drive. Other reasons Virginia is so popular among 45 million tourists include its assortment of theme, wildlife, and water parks, as well as its rich history. Jamestown was the first permanent English settlement in North America over 400 years ago. History buffs also flock to Colonial Williamsburg where you can take a stroll on the very streets once trodden by Thomas Jefferson and George Washington.
