Commercial Enterprises
Notwithstanding the amazingly successful efforts to provide a non-commercial atmosphere at the three Historic Triangle areas (and on the Colonial Parkway between them), there are many hotels, motels, campgrounds, restaurants, shops and stores, gasoline stations, and amusements close by.
Other major attractions nearby include:
- Busch Gardens is a major theme park located near Williamsburg in James City County.
- Williamsburg Pottery Factory is also nearby on U.S. Highway 60 a few miles west of Williamsburg in James City County.
- Water Country USA (Williamsburg) is a water park, also located near Williamsburg in York County.
- The Williamsburg Winery is the Commonwealth of Virginia's largest winery, located on a 320-acre (1.3 km2) farm in historical Williamsburg, Virginia.

Famous quotes containing the words commercial and/or enterprises:
“The cultivation of one set of faculties tends to the disuse of others. The loss of one faculty sharpens others; the blind are sensitive in touch. Has not the extreme cultivation of the commercial faculty permitted others as essential to national life, to be blighted by disease?”
—J. Ellen Foster (1840–1910)
“One generation abandons the enterprises of another like stranded vessels.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
