Virginia is an extraordinary state. First, this is where the first British colony in North America was founded. Second, it was home to eight U.S. presidents, including the first, third, fourth, and fifth. The state was nicknamed the "mother of the presidents" for this matter. Third, Virginia, bordering the metropolitan area, is historically closely associated with the federal government and nation-wide programs. Many people in the state go to work in Washington, DC. The Pentagon, the CIA headquarters (in Langley), the National Science Foundation, the Geological Survey, the main U.S. Navy base in the Atlantic (the largest in the world), and dozens of other military and civilian facilities and agencies are located in Virginia. Even the "main" U.S. cemetery (Arlington) is also located here. For travelers, this region of the USA is interesting for its historical heritage, which is carefully preserved, a lot of natural wonders, as well as excellent beaches and a high level of tourist service.
