A restaurant with a great view. It's a little more fancy than the other places on the list, but we typically go for appetizers and drinks outside and enjoy the view of the James River.

Very popular spot for walking, festivals and music. Check Richmond's online calendar for a schedule of year-round events. You can often find good Food Trucks on site! No scheduled events? Enjoy a walk to Historic Tredegar, the canal, or across Teapot bridge! (Brown's Island and Belle Isle are next to each other. Street parking is available - but can be busy depending on public events)

It's in Richmond City, but you would never know it. Pack a picnic and wander through the Italian and Japanese Gardens. Paved paths are great for walking or running as well.

Get out of the city for a day and visit Colonial Williamsburg. A little less than an hour from downtown Richmond, Williamsburg has premium outlets, plus the historic village. There are a lot of good restaurants to try out, including Kims Arms Tavern - which is like stepping back in time!
