LewisburgWhen I think of a charming downtown, I think of Lewisburg, West Virginia. It's situated in the Greenbrier Valley of The Allegheny mountains just over the Virginia border along Interstate 64. You will be surprised at how progressive and diverse his little enclave is! Antique shops, live theatre, delicious food and The Greenbrier are all part of the offerings. Go, you'll thank me later.
