While Virginia may be for lovers, Alexandria, Virginia, is for nature lovers. Situated on the banks of the Potomac River just across from Washington, D.C., Alexandria has 17 miles of paved trail along the Potomac for biking, jogging and walking. Many parks and museums populate the Alexandria area, and the Potomac is perfect for boating and water recreation. And at the end of the day, a hotel on King Street may be just the way to finish.
