A capital with character
A university unlike any other is in a city like no other. Whitewater rafters take on our class III and IV rapids right downtown. More than 300 historic markers – and more than 100 murals – line the streets. Richmond is one of the most eclectic, beautiful and diverse cities you’ll experience.
