While in town on business, I had some down time to travel and explore the lovely city of Richmond, the River City, which was recently referred to in the hit song Rich Men North of Richmond, made popular by Oliver Anthony.
In this video I visited the James River Park Pipeline Walkway, the Belle Isle Suspension Bridge, Monument Avenue, and Virginia Commonwealth University.
Here are two KZfaq Shorts I created from this trip:
• James River Pipeline W...
• Belle Isle Suspension ...
Richmond also has a ton of American history. Below is an excerpt from the Richmond Wikipedia page:
"Richmond, the capital of Virginia, is among America’s oldest major cities. During the Revolutionary War period, several notable events occurred in the city, including Patrick Henry's "Give me liberty, or give me death!" speech in 1775 at St. John's Church and the passage of the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom written by Thomas Jefferson. During the American Civil War, Richmond was the capital of the Confederate States of America."
