Students taking English courses in Winchester quickly discover that this idyllic Southern city, with its lovely historical and agricultural character, is an excellent place to begin or continue their language education. The numerous beautiful historic structures still standing in the city today make it easy for students to imagine Winchester as it was when George Washington and Stonewall Jackson walked its streets. Tour one of the more famous colonial homes – and practice your English – when you visit Abram's Delight, built in 1754. History buffs will also love visiting Stonewall Jackson's Headquarters, a museum operated by period-dressed guides that contains the largest collection of Jackson memorabilia in the world. Aside from its historic beauty, Winchester is famous for its top regional export: apples. Local government recently launched an art initiative that led to apple sculptures made from all kinds of artistic media being placed throughout the city. You can also taste Winchester's favorite produce and attend the Apple Blossom Queen's coronation each year during the annual Shenandoah Apple Blossom Festival. Enjoy the historic charm of America's "Apple Capital" when you choose to develop and perfect your English skills in Winchester.
