Due to the nature of the topic and the wide range of information available, in order to cover only a tiny bit of it properly, some of the websites included here may have a commercial element in addition to the excellent information they provide. Such inclusion does not constitute an endorsement of product or service by archaeolink.com. Sites are included for information value only.

The number of sites available online for this topic is enormous. This site can not and does not index all travel resources for a state. These "tourism" pages are basically designed as a supplement to the State by State Social Studies pages.

For those of you for whom this "supplementary" material is not enough, the following does provide some idea of what is available online and will hopefully be a good starting point for a more serious search.

Back to Virginia Social Studies where you will find additional material including history, colleges and universities, capital city profile, lesson plans, state government and more.

Williamsburg Travel Guide | Fodor's Online __ "Colonial Williamsburg, a careful restoration of the former Virginia capital, gives you the chance to walk into another century and see how earlier Americans lived. The streets may be unrealistically clean for that era, and you can find hundreds of others exploring the buildings with you, but the rich detail of the re-creation and the sheer size of the city could hold your attention for days. A ticket or pass (price is based on the number of attractions and the duration of visit) admits the holder to sites in the restored area, but it costs nothing just to walk around and absorb the atmosphere." You will find a good overview as only Fodor's Travel can do it. - illustrated - From fodors.com - http://www.fodors.com/miniguides/mgresults.cfm?destination=williamsburg@1044
