Richmond, VA, is one of the oldest cities in Virginia, and it has been the state capital since the late 1700s. Franklin Street has long been one of the city’s most important—and most beautiful—streets. This is where many industrialists—including the tobacco merchants—built their homes. We’re starting at the grandest and most historic hotel in town, the Jefferson Hotel. Built by one of Richmond’s wealthiest tobacco merchants, the Jefferson has stood for over 100 years and has catered to the famous, the infamous—and a few alligators!

Boston has long been world-renowned for its history and the role it played during the American Revolution.
