6Williamsburg, Virginia

For history lovers, Christmas in Colonial Williamsburg is a step back in time. This restored 18th-century town is steeped in American history, and during the holiday season, it transforms into a charming Christmas village. The town’s traditional Grand Illumination kicks off the holiday season with a fireworks display, live music, and colonial reenactments. 

Visitors can stroll through the town’s cobblestone streets, where homes and shops are adorned with handcrafted wreaths and decorations inspired by colonial traditions. Horse-drawn carriages make their way through the streets, while carolers dressed in period costumes sing Christmas classics.
