Spirit of Christmas Past in Williamsburg

city. In Williamsburg, Christmas traditions have been handed
down for generations. Hear the wondrous sounds of holiday carolers,
see the bright candles and colorful display of holiday decorations
in this month-long celebration. To give you a real feel for
the richness and warmth of colonial lifestyle, you’ll
enjoy a traditional holiday dinner at a historic tavern.
A Living History Museum
For almost one hundred years, Williamsburg served as the social,
political and cultural capital of our country. To re-create
an authentic patriot backdrop, Williamsburg has restored or
reconstructed more than 500 buildings to their original state.
You’ll learn about the early days of this country’s
history and get a real glimpse of American history, as it comes
to life. Mayflower gives you ample time to explore this fascinating
village on your own. Be sure to stop by and see the Governor’s
Palace, Capitol Building and Bassett Hall. Take in an 18th–century
play, see 18th–century–style fireworks and visit
the shops where old-world craftsmanship takes center stage.
You’ll share a festive Christmas farewell dinner and
live holiday performance with your fellow travelers.
