  • Thomas Jefferson began building Monticello before he went to France. He was living there when elected President. Both he and his wife died there & he is buried in a family plot on the grounds. When he died, he was deeply in debt & everything was sold (including the slaves) to pay the debt. The burial plot was not included in the sale. I have been there twice & it's always beautiful, no matter what time of year it is. I couldn't take pictures, so thanks for posting these.

    the grass is greener and all that... I'm from Southern California and currently back again, but I've lived in Japan, a place in Africa, Virginia and Florida. I kind of miss Virginia though. But one thing I've learned is that there are some awesome places close to home. There's some nice cheap country in Oregon I hear.

  • ive lived in charlottesville my whole life and I WANT TO GET OUT!! i wanna live somewhere big like nyc

  • Nice repros from the best Monticello book. Many thanks!

  • Very beautiful.

  • Why isn't the bloodline claiming stake in this property> I am talking about the Blacks he had brought into this world. I would need "in" on those paid tours and few of those antiques and some silver utensils. 

  • they got like 14 weed plants growing in the garden, you can see them on the tour,, thomas jefferson and a few other presidents grew herb, and george washington was the 13'th president

  • i wanna come

  • did thomas jefferson ever live in the white house or did he make himself an exception and stay here instead? or did he live here before/after being president?

  • nice videos, i just went here a few weeks ago it was amazing! better than mount vernon.
