Watching a video, walking through a site, or exploring artifacts can definitely take visitors back in time and give them a better understanding of the nation’s history, but none give a more memorable experience than the world’s largest living history museum, Colonial Williamsburg. The 301-acre historic area is a true-to-life replication of Britain’s 18th century capital and includes everything from restored and reconstructed buildings, replicated products, and costumed interpreters that bring the decades before the American Revolution back to life.
The different perspectives of history, whether it be Native American, black, or white, slave, indentured, or free, are all bought together for visitors to appreciate in Colonial Williamsburg.
