Norfolk, Virginia is located on the eastern shore of the United States. Its closeness to Washington, D.C., as well as its strategic location at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay, make it an ideal location for the country's largest naval facility.

Many new hotels, retail businesses, and restaurants have opened, as have a number of attractions such as the Hampton Roads Naval Museum and the USS Wisconsin.

You will be able to traverse the iconic Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel if you rent a car in Norfolk. The bridge connects southern Virginia to the Delmarva Peninsula, which includes sections of Delaware, Maryland, and Northern Virginia, stretching over 23 miles across the Atlantic Ocean. The bridge and two one-mile-long tunnels (which allow ships to pass) were completed in 1964, shortening the normally lengthy journey by 95 miles. The road system, which is a significant tourist attraction, offers numerous locations where you may stop along the journey to take in the beauty and animals. Come watch this amazing engineering accomplishment.

Continue on to the Rose Garden, where you will find over 3,000 plants in 300 different kinds, with over 250,000 flowers during peak season. Though the gardens are brighter in the spring and summer, Virginia's mild winters were ideal for enjoying the Winter Honeysuckle, Holly, and other hardy plants that bloom all year.
