The Most Underrated Place to Visit in Every State

Blacksburg, Virginia

Blacksburg is situated in the northern Blue Ridge Highlands region of Virginia. This land was the home of Monacan and Moneton tribes until European settlers came in the 1670s. Today, it is lively and prosperous, due in part to the presence of Virginia Tech and the business and social benefits the school brings.

Hahn Horticulture Garden is ‘on campus’ but gives the feel of a retreat from the buzzing city. The six acres of teaching and display gardens were established by the horticulture faculty for undergraduates to learn about plants, landscapes and the environment. But anyone can visit for free between dawn and dusk, any day of the year.
