Alexandria - Alexandria VA Romantic Getaway

Preview: There is a town within sight of the nation’s capital that most everyone has heard of, yet only a few know about. Though located in the shadow of Washington DC, Alexandria is certainly not overshadowed by it. Many historic districts benefited from preservation and urban renewal projects begun in the 1960s. Alexandria’s most successful efforts are reflected in the Old Town Historic District. Antique shops, specialty stores and boutiques abound, and there are an incredible number of restaurants featuring a wide variety of ethnic foods. This mixture makes Alexandria a wonderful place for a relaxing romantic break. This chapter contains romantic places to stay, the best restaurant discoveries, and the fun activities and special moments that a couple will remember forever.
