RICHMOND, VIRGINIA IS SO UNDERRATED! 🏛️ 🍳 🪦 (and the food scene is insanely good) 

Richmond, Virginia used to be a sleepy southern city. Today, it's teeming with locally-owned restaurants, bars, and an eclectic arts scene. I discovered an Egyptian building, an abandoned hydroelectric plant, and the burial site of two former U.S. presidents. Oh, and I did it all for less than $200.
