Nothing compares to Richmond in any part of the world! My goal is to have the world see how great of a city it is! Even though many of its residents do not think so!

It's funny how no one thinks so unless they've done a lot of traveling or lived in other places around the US and world.  I returned to Richmond this past weekend for a short visit after 5 years!  It was great to be back home and Richmond - what a city...if only it knew its potential!

The Richmond Metropolitan Convention and Visitors Bureau has launched a clever campaign at one of Washington's busiest subway stops.

And, says RMCVB, it is producing favorable results.

American Airlines features Richmond in its current magazine.  The upbeat piece written by Nathan Thornburg covers and uncovers the city in tantalizing ways.

It's a gratifying read in three pages of small type.

Enjoy:

This is nice! I remember viewing this on some other website with other ones.... but I forgot the name of the website!
So.... I guess I'll have to keep Google-ing!

Ha! I found that website I was referring to! I have a feeling you all may have seen it, but then again, it amazes me at how much people push to get RVA's name out. Find what you love, and love what you find should be the new city advertising motto. And just so I don't forget this website again, I bookmarked it
