The University of Virginia campus is as beautiful as it is mysterious. Founded by Thomas Jefferson in 1819, the architecture is impressive, from its serpentine walls to the Rotunda (a National Historic Landmark and a UNESCO World Heritage Site). Stroll across The Lawn (also a National Historic Landmark) and you might just feel the mystery of the campus surround you … from its secret societies to its legends to its ghosts (it is reportedly one of the country's most-haunted universities), UVA's long history is everywhere.
Beauty and mystery aside, UVA is considered one of the top public universities in the country, ranked as "Very High Research" by the Carnegie Foundation. Its original board included then-President James Monroe, Jefferson, and James Madison. The UVA campus is the only college campus considered a World Heritage Site. The campus covers 1,682 acres in Charlottesville, Virginia. This impressive university is also a force in college sports, having the most NCAA Championships in the Atlantic Coast Conference. You can cheer on the Virginia Cavaliers at Scott Stadium (football), John Paul Jones Arena (basketball), and Davenport Field (baseball).
UVA is blocks from Downtown Charlottesville (just follow University Avenue to Main Street), which makes it easy to find a rental near UVA that is within walking distance to both. Of course, you can always hop the Charlottesville Area Transit trolley on days you don't feel like walking or biking to campus. Other great neighborhoods to consider include 10th & Page, Venable, Lewis Mountain, North Downtown, Huntington Village, and Poplar Glen. Sports fans should look on the southeastern side of campus, closer to Scott Stadium. Look between Stadium Road and Jefferson Park Avenue or in the neighborhoods of Nobhill and Fry's Spring.
