Roanoke, VA Virginia Yellow Pages - Roanoke, VA Online Yellow Pages

Roanoke is nestled among mountains which envelop the Great Valley, expanding from northernmost Virginia southwestward into east Tennessee. The location is at a point where the valley is pinched between the Blue Ridges and the Alleghenies, which acts as a natural barrier to the winter cold. Roanoke is an appealing little city, and the unofficial "capital" of Southwest Virginia. The city is still a major railroad junction, as the multiple tracks running through downtown will confirm, but it's also a lively regional center of business and a cultivator of the arts. The city is western Virginia's center for industry, trade, health, education, travel, and entertainment.
