[quote=Anonymous]The NY Times did just 36 hours in Richmond:

It is my hometown and my family still lives there. Here are my recommendations (just my opinion):

1). Maymont House (do you mean the Dooley Mansion)?  No that isn't a must do.  If the weather is nice sure Maymont is fun, but if you don't have kids with you I can think of tons of other things to do.

2). VMFA (Virginia museum of fine art) is excellent, to me that is a must do.  And the Virginia Historical Society museum is practically next door, I would go there as well.

3). No, there aren't wineries around, you need to head west via 64 towards Charlottesville for that.  BUT RVA is a microbrew town, so there are many breweries to visit if that's your fancy.

4). The food scene is EXCELLENT.  Call and make a reservation NOW for Saturday night

5). Get drinks at the rooftop bar at Quirk

6). Visit one of the islands on the James

7). Go to Churchill, take a tour of St. John's church

8). Visit carytown

9). Have fun[/quote]
