Steeped in history and adorned with natural beauty, Roanoke is the eighth-most populous city in Virginia. The settlement, initially known as Big Lick, was established in 1882 and grew rapidly during the late 19th century, earning the nickname "The Magic City". It served as the junction of the Shenandoah Valley Railroad and the Norfolk and Western Railway, attracting settlers of Scotch-Irish and German descent during the 18th and early 19th centuries.

Rich in culture from its Algonquian roots to its revitalised downtown area, Roanoke has seen it all, from tensions of racial segregation to an economic shift from railways to medical innovations. Today, it boasts an illuminated star at the top of Mill Mountain, solidifying its title as the "Star City of the South". Despite its vibrant past, the city is also known for its focus on outdoor tourism due to its ideal locality within the Blue Ridge Mountains and proximity to the panoramic Blue Ridge Parkway.
