There is no question that Portsmouth is a city that is proud of history. And you can even reach back and experience a bit of it for yourself when you take the popular Olde Towne Lantern Tour. This is a walking tour of the Olde Towne Historic District and your guide not only leads the way with a big lantern, but he is also dressed in period attire to add to the authenticity of the tour. Held at twilight, you will visit some of Olde Towne's most significant attractions and structures, and hear about the legends and folklore that are still very much alive here.
Fans of history will not want to miss the opportunity to visit the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard Museum in Portsmouth. This is much more than a history lesson–this impressive facility houses an incredible collection of military artifacts, pictures, weapons and many historic ships including the CSS VIRGINIA (EX-MERRIMAC) as well as the world's first aircraft carrier, the LANGLEY.
Twisted Pig Ale & Smokehouse is one of those unassuming nightlife places that is as comfortable as a pair of favorite jeans. The folks here are friendly and welcoming to anyone who strolls in and takes their place on one of the many bar stools. The waiters and waitresses are always serving up your favorite beverages along with a large helping of great service. A fun, relaxing place to enjoy a few drinks with friends on those nights when you don't feel like dressing up or dealing with large crowds.
