City of Manassas is where Historic Manassas is located. The city has a lot to offer like Vertical rock rock climbing, Splash Down water park, historic battlefield, indoor go cart race track, ice skating and a great bowling alley.

Traveler advice
Getting around
Train Station, Uber, Lift and Underground Tube
Train Station to catch VRE and Amtrak is right in town as well as Uber and Lift drivers. The underground is the fastest but it’s 21 mins away at Fairfax/GMU/ Vienna. If your driving 66 is mins up the road.
