Old Town

Old Town is very historical place. There are many interesting things to see there are buildings that are connected together. There is Alexandria library, there is a water fall. The next thing we

saw was the Christ Church. This church is very historical place because General George Washington and that it was there before the Civil War. There are very old tombstones there.

The church was built when Alexandria was being built. Then we saw George Washington townhouse{workhouse}. Then we went to the ice well. The ice well was a place that they kept the ice frozen. We then went to Gasbys Tavern. It was the most popualar hotle/tavern. The place only allowed men. But if there where dances women were allowed. The next place was Lord FairFaxes house. They made the house in 1800. So those are all things that you can see in Old Town.
