Museums
The VMFA is my absolute favorite spot in Richmond. They have great happy hours on Friday where you can hang out in the gardens or inside. They have local DJs come or bands. Every Thursday they have Jazz happy hours as well which are great for relaxing. The art is of course wonderful as well and new exhibits are constantly coming in.

A quick but good museum! It isn’t very expensive and is a great thing to walk through if you have a couple hours! The building is brand new and right next to the new walking bridge and Belle Isle

This is my usual spot on the river and a great local spot. You need to follow the trail for a while to find the rocks to sit on in the river. You can also mountain bike and trail run. Overall great spot.
