Review of Alexandria, Virginia


Alexandria, VA
Star Rating - 7/3/2007
Alexandria is ideal for anyone interested in history, politics, art, food, recreation. Across the river from Washington, DC, Alexandria provides easy access to the national monuments and museums. Old Towne preserves much of the colonial atmosphere and architecture, while providing boutiques, galleries, and restaurants that appeal to all ages. Once construction on the interstate "beltway" and Wilson Bridge (over the Potomac) is completed, getting around by car should improve significantly. Meanwhile, our subway system serves most of Alexandria City and gives direct access to metropolitan Washington. Alexandria also contributes to the superior reputation of Northern Virginia for income levels and educational facilities.
