Charlottesville, known as the gem of the Central Virginia region, epitomizes the beauty of Virginia. The best way to see the area is to begin at the classically beautiful rotunda, Thomas Jefferson's tribute to "the illimitable freedom of the mind,”. Thomas Jefferson’s legacy in the area extends further to the founding of the University of Virginia and the beautiful Monticello house. Designed by Jefferson in 1768 the grounds of the house illustrates the very best of the times architectural, scientific and agricultural expertise.
From this magical epicenter, Charlottesville unfolds encompassing historic monuments, bookstores, restaurants and bars, an excellent symphony and theatre Repertoire Company, and an annual film festival.
