Williamsburg is a living reminder of our nation's history. Founded in 1699, this historical town was once the capital of the Virginia Colony. Present-day Williamsburg is a leader for a movement that is working towards reducing environmental impacts from the tourism industry within the state of Virginia. History buffs and outdoor enthusiasts alike can enjoy the historical landmarks throughout Colonial Williamsburg while taking to the trails of York River State Park and surrounding areas on a mountain bike. Taking a canoe trip along Taskinas Creek is one of the best things to do in the area as well.
