"The Palace At Colonial Williamsburg" The main portion of the stately #GovernorsPalace building in #ColonialWilliamsburg, #Virginia is a lovely sight on a bright summer afternoon. #Williamsburg is filled with architectural jewels at every step, and the #Palace is one of the most admired and beloved of all.

Christmas Morning In Colonial Williamsburg

Historic Duke of Gloucester Street, the main street of Colonial Williamsburg, is waking up to the coziest of snowy Christmas mornings.

As wall art options and gift ideas (perfect for the Colonial Williamsburg lover in your life!). Hand-painted, digitally, in #CorelPainter … not created using Ai programs.

On an April day, a visit to Colonial Williamsburg often begins at Market Square for us. As we enter the grounds of the Living History Museum, one of the first things that greets our eyes, just behind the Courthouse and across the street from the Gissell Hay Lodging House, is a massive oak tree … The Compton Oak. To learn more about it, visit my website:
