Civil War buffs and smartly dressed business professionals alike can find themselves trading sunny Orlando, for Dulles International Airport (IAD). The airport sits right next to the serene Frying Pan Park, and it's also at the crossroads for all of Northern Virginia.
From the airport, you can hop over to the Udvar-Hazy Air and Space Museum's observatory tower to watch the planes take off. All it takes to discover the multifaceted sprawl of the D.C. metro area is a rental car and a sense of adventure.
Nearby Route 28, or the Dulles Toll Road, will let you explore all Northern Virginia has to offer. Heading south will take you toward the boardwalk at Mananas Battlefield Park. Here, you can walk across the stone bridge, or trace the steps that Civil War companies took during the Battle of Bull Run. If shopping is your true calling, take 28-N to 7-E and hit the two malls found in Tysons Corner.
You can expect nonstop flights between Orlando International Airport (MCO) and Dulles International Airport (IAD) to take about two hours. IAD is a main connecting hub on the East Coast, so if you find yourself with a layover, don't be afraid to go out shopping or sightseeing while you wait.
