ARTICLECharles City Charles City County, settled by the English in 1613, is wedged between the James and Chickahominy rivers. From its very beginning the area has been tied to America's history. Benjamin Harrison V, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, and presidents William Henry Harrison and John Tyler were born here. Historic plantationsborder the James River, on or just off scenic SR 5, near the Colonial capitals of Williamsburg and Jamestown and convenient to the later capital, Richmond.Charles City

NATIONAL PARKAppomattox Court House National Historical Park Three miles northeast of Appomattox on SR 24, Appomattox Court House National Historical Park is a 1,744-acre site. On April 9, 1865, Gen. Robert E. Lee's weakened and outnumbered Confederate Army of Northern Virginia was cut off at Appomattox Court House by Gen. Ulysses S. Grant. The two commanders met in the parlor of a house owned by Wilmer McLean—and the Army of Northern Virginia was surrendered to Grant.Appomattox Court House National Historical Park
NATIONAL PARKArlington National Cemetery Directly across the Potomac River west of Washington, Arlington National Cemetery was established in 1864 on the confiscated estate of Robert E. Lee. It is an impressive sight, with seemingly endless rows of simple white headstones. Imposing stones and monuments mark the graves of many individuals and groups.Arlington National Cemetery

Assateague Island National Seashore and Assateague State Park manage the Maryland portion of the island, and the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge manages the Virginia end.

NATIONAL PARKCape Hatteras National Seashore The main attractions are the wild beauty and vast expanses of sand and water. A few villages are scattered along the Outer Banks Scenic Byway, providing easy stopover points for food, lodging and cultural heritage. Bottlenose dolphins can often be seen close to shore, shorebirds and waterfowl abound, and seashell hunters will find a good variety. The sand is soft and deep at times.
