Description
One of my favorite places in Williamsburg, Virginia at Christmas has to be the old, historic Williamsburg Inn on Dule of Gloucester Street. The inn is wonderful any time of year but really shines during the Christmas holidays. The exterior is adorned with thousands of tiny white lights that cast wonderful reflections in the winter pool adjoining the hotel. The effect is magic and mesmerizing.
The Inn's history began in 1937, with two other additions added through the years. The design is a three-story, seven-bay, Colonial Revival style brick structure, acclaimed for its accommodations, service and cuisine
The Inn was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997. Williamsburg Inn is a member of Historic Hotels of America, the official program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
The Williamsburg Inn has twice hosted Queen Elizabeth II and her husband Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, in 1957 and 2007 whilst visiting Jamestown, Virginia. These visits marked the original settlement of the British colonists on the 350th and 400th anniversaries when the British first landed in America.
Also available in color.

In addition to the banner, I am adding this more permanent recognition of its FEATURE on the homepage of A TREE OR TREES IN BLACK AND WHITE. I try mightily to feature only images that would be at home in a juried competition. No doubt that this image fits that bill. CONGRATULATIONS! And consider adding your image to DISCUSSIONS "Please post your featured photograph here" for greater, long-lasting visibility.
