Just 20 miles south of Washington DC, Woodbridge is located in Prince William County, Virginia. The city is a popular spot to stay when visiting the many Virginia state parks in the area, such as Leesylvania State Park on the Potomac River. The park is idyllic for swimming, hiking, or boating on sunny days. Head to the (free!) Occoquan Bay Wildlife Refuge to see some local bird species along its four miles of trails.

Potomac Mills is the area's major shopping outlet for some retail therapy. But, obviously, it also houses a number of excellent local restaurants and cafes, and you can also find some local eateries while exploring Potomac Town Center, including locally popular authentic African cuisine and Indian restaurants.

Prince William Parkway directly links Woodbridge to the I-95, so you can start many cross-country routes from this area. Amtrak Northeast Regional trains and local VRE trains connect to Washington, D.C., and beyond. SprinterBus services that stop in Woodbridge connect to New York.

Philadelphia

We may feel a little bit more than just brotherly love for Philadelphia, a city steeped in history and culture. Where else can you channel your inner Rocky Balboa on his epic run, and later enjoy an authentic Philly cheesesteak as a reward?

Philadelphia’s affordability (especially compared to other East Coast cities) is just one of many reasons it is among Wanderu’s best destinations for college students. Another reason is how much there is to do! Early American history takes precedence at Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell, while museums abound on Benjamin Franklin Parkway, sometimes called the most artistic mile in the city. Head to Reading Terminal Market to fuel up for a night hitting the bars, clubs, and live music joints that line South Street.

Philadelphia is a major hub for both Greyhound and Amtrak, and its 30th Street Station is one of the busiest stations in the country. The plentitude of ground travel and the nearby Philadelphia International Airport make this exciting city very easily accessible, even on a budget.
