Located along the James River, Downtown Lynchburg offers an attractive blend of history and natural beauty. The historic downtown provides shops, restaurants, entertainment, historic sites, and parks in the ultimate live-work-play setting. Be sure to take a walking tour of Lynchburg's seven historic districts to appreciate the elegant Queen Anne and Federal style mansions. The Academy Center of the Arts, located on Main Street, was built in 1905 and plays host to jazz and opera concerts, performers, and competitions.
Visit the awe-inspiring Monument Terrace, learn more about the city at Lynchburg Museum, or spend the afternoon at Amazement Square. For those who enjoy the outdoors, the Blackwater Creek Bikeway (part of the James River Heritage Trail System) provides miles of trails leading past monuments, Percival's Island, a railroad tunnel, and a waterfall. Other great downtown destinations include the Renaissance Theater, Riverviews Artspace, the Lynchburg Museum at the Old Courthouse, and the Lower Bluffwalk -- a pedestrian walkway with amazing views of the river and the Blue Ridge Mountains.
