What are Some Tourist Attractions in Richmond, Virginia?
It’s not surprising that Richmond, Virginia, a city steeped in American history, has many historical tourist attractions. The Shockoe Slip and Shockoe Bottom areas date back to the early 1800s and the slave trade and are now tourist attractions in Richmond. There are also cultural museums and theater types of tourist attractions in Richmond, as well as interesting landmarks such as the giant milk bottles. Richmond’s giant milk bottles are at the corner of Marshall and Adams in the downtown area where the Old Curles’ Neck Dairy once stood. The dairy was destroyed except for the bottles and in the mid-1980s the building provided studio space for artists. The three milk bottle shaped building sections are fitted with windows and now form part of the Richmond Dairy Apartments.
