Big University with Big Landscaping
The University of Virginia, which is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, was founded in 1819 by Thomas Jefferson. The same man who owns and built another world heritage site and that is the Monticello.
This university with vast degrees or courses to offer is surrounded by hundreds of acres of farms and gardens and is very well-known for its majestic Rotunda. The Rotunda can be visited by tourists daily at 10a.m., 11a.m., 2p.m., 3p.m. and 4p.m. A request from the University Guide Service is required for those who will be coming in large groups like that of 15 or more, while smaller groups will not be required. Make sure you visit this garden and arboretum in VA.
