The Richmond National Battlefield Park protects more than 2,000 acres of land in its 11 units spread throughout Richmond and the counties of Chesterfield, Hanover and Henrico. Other than a few small parking lots, tour roads and visitors centers, most of that land is essentially green space—protected nature preserve.
