Founded in 1964 and heavily influenced by the Garden City Movement, Reston was designed to successfully combine green spaces, commercial areas and suburban neighborhoods. The best place to observe the success of the design is the Reston Town Center and the beautiful Van Gogh Bridge on the Green Trail walking/hiking path. Other very pleasant areas for a walk include the Thoreau Loop Trail and the short trails at the Walker Nature Center. Cultural attractions include the Reston Regional Library, the ArtInsights Film Art Gallery and the Center Stage Theater. You can satisfy your inner Foodie at Sweet Green, La Madeleine and Cooper’s Hawk Winery and Restaurant.
