Get in a little exercise the morning of the wedding with the Monument 10k! It starts at 8am and the start line is less than 1 mile from the venue and hotel!
Stroll through and check out some amazing art. Even the outside is lovely for hanging out. Every Friday at 5, they host a happy hour with beer and wine and people hang out outside.
The Canal Walk has been a staple of Richmond for decades, entertaining visitors and residents alike. Located along downtown’s riverfront, the Canal Walk stretches 1.25 miles along the James River and Kanawha and Haxall Canals, and has access points at nearly every block between 5th and 17th Streets. You can also take a Riverfront Canal Cruise (https://venturerichmond.com/our-services/riverfront-canal-cruises/).
We love Blanchards (multiple locations, but our fav is the one in Scott's Addition), Lift (1 block from Common House), Paix (in the Museum District) and Whisk (in Shockoe Bottom).
