Introduction
Williamsburg is America's most complete preserved colonial town, once with Boston and Philadelphia a top political center of 18th-century North America. Today Colonial Williamsburg revives its streets, craft shops, capitol and mansions as a living museum, with costumed interpreters recreating pre-independence daily life. Visitors enter smithies, print shops and the capitol to feel the intellectual stir before nationhood. Blending rigorous history with immersion, it is the liveliest lesson in early American history and a fine choice for family study and slow travel.
