Les meilleurs hôtels à Winchester

In addition to being married and buried here, country music star Patsy Cline first sang on the air at a small radio station in Winchester, Virginia. The radio station receives its share of visitors, as do the homes where Cline grew up and was married in as well as the grave where she was laid to rest after she died in a 1963 plane crash. Winchester's pastoral setting in the Shenandoah Valley is a place of charming architecture and a rich heritage. Touted as the place where the Shenandoah Valley begins and history never ends, Winchester and Frederick County, located 70 miles west of Washington, D.C., are rife with battlefields, festivals, museums and theaters. One of the area's more popular events is the Shenandoah Apple Blossom Festival, held each spring and attracting thousands of visitors. The community is also proud of the Winchester Medical Center, which serves the tri-state area, as well as the fact that it received one of 10 national All-American Community designations in 1991 for its "active and effective" volunteerism.
