About Norfolk
Norfolk, Virginia is a proud and strategically vital city situated on the southern shore of Hampton Roads at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay in southeastern Virginia, approximately 160 kilometres southeast of Richmond and 320 kilometres south of Baltimore, and is the second-largest city in Virginia and the urban heart of the Hampton Roads metropolitan area — one of the largest metropolitan regions in the United States and home to the greatest concentration of military installations and naval power anywhere on earth, a fact that has shaped every dimension of Norfolk's economy, culture, identity, and daily life across more than three centuries of American maritime and military history.
Naval Station Norfolk is the largest naval station in the world — a vast installation covering over 4,300 acres on the northern tip of the city that is home to the largest fleet of ships and aircraft in the United States Navy, including multiple aircraft carrier strike groups whose nuclear-powered carriers are among the most powerful and complex machines ever built by human hands. The presence of this extraordinary military installation, alongside the NATO Allied Command Transformation headquarters, the largest NATO command in the United States, and dozens of supporting military facilities across the Hampton Roads region, gives Norfolk a strategic importance to American and Allied defence that is simply without parallel among American cities of its size and makes it one of the most consequential military communities in the world.
Beyond its military identity, Norfolk is a city of genuine cultural sophistication and surprising beauty, anchored by the Chrysler Museum of Art — one of the finest art museums in the American South, with an outstanding collection of over 30,000 works including one of the most important glass collections in the world, a fitting complement to the museum's magnificent Tiffany holdings — and by the Nauticus maritime museum and battleship Wisconsin, whose massive Iowa-class hull moored on the Elizabeth River waterfront is one of the most impressive and accessible battleship museums in the country. The city's Ghent neighbourhood is one of the most charming and architecturally distinguished urban residential districts in Virginia, a beautifully preserved early twentieth-century streetcar suburb of tree-lined boulevards, independent restaurants, and eclectic boutiques that gives Norfolk a neighbourhood character of genuine warmth and appeal.
Top attractions also include the stunning Norfolk Botanical Garden — one of the largest botanical gardens in the Southeast, with 175 acres of themed gardens bordering Lake Whitehurst — the Virginia Zoo, the Harrison Opera House home of the Virginia Opera, the vibrant Granby Street entertainment corridor, and the beautiful Ocean View beach district on the Chesapeake Bay. The broader Hampton Roads region encompasses the extraordinary Colonial and Revolutionary heritage of Williamsburg, Jamestown, and Yorktown just across the water — the Historic Triangle representing the most concentrated collection of early American history in the country — accessible via the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel.
With its unrivalled naval heritage and strategic military importance, outstanding Chrysler Museum of Art, magnificent battleship memorial, beautiful botanical garden, charming Ghent neighbourhood, and a proud maritime community spirit forged across centuries of service to the sea and the nation, Norfolk is a southeastern Virginia city of extraordinary strategic significance, surprising cultural depth, and enduring waterfront appeal.
Its airport code is ORF (Norfolk International Airport).
