Nestled between Roanoke and Richmond along I-64, Charlottesville, Virginia combines rich history with the fun and excitement that comes along with being a college town. Home to the University of Virginia and its Cavaliers, the town offers the full range of sporting events as well as live music, theater performances, fine arts displays, and more. With football games in Scott Stadium and basketball in John Paul Jones Arena, it's always fun to support the home team. Beyond the university, Charlottesville also hosts Broadway shows at the Paramount Theater and headlining musical acts at the Sprint Pavillion's 3500 seat outdoor amphitheater.
Enjoy the temperate weather of central Virginia when you head out to the nearby Shenandoah National Park, where the scenic mountain views are the perfect backdrop for hiking. Go apple picking at Carter Mountain Orchard, or visit Monticello, Thomas Jefferson's plantation manor, located only a few miles from downtown. Jefferson isn't the only notable American to call Charlottesville home. Other famous names who have lived here include writers Edgar Allen Poe and William Faulkner, actors Rob Lowe and Sissy Spacek, and the Dave Matthews Band.
When you'd prefer a low-key day of shopping, visit the Downtown Mall, an outdoor pedestrian mall with every kind of shop you could imagine. Or spend the afternoon enjoying the Fralin Museum of Art or the Virginia Discovery Museum, then stop by Mel's Café for some fried chicken. If you're looking for an upscale, romantic dinner instead, make a reservation at the Ivy Inn Restaurant.
