How Far From Buena Vista to ...

We spend a lot of time looking through Gazetteers that were published in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Many of the Gazetteers include the distance from a community such as Buena Vista to various places of note, such as the White House.

With a nod to our favorite Gazetteers, the straight-line distance beginning in Buena Vista and extending to:

• Tuscaloosa, which is the Seat of Tuscaloosa County, lies just to the West Southwest.
• Montgomery, which is the State Capital of Alabama, lies 91 miles [146.5 km]<1> to the southeast (SE). If you could drive a straight line from Buena Vista to Montgomery, with an average speed<6>of 63 miles [101.4 km] per hour, it would take less than two hours to make the trip. A comfortable walk of 2.2 miles [3.5 km] per hour would take 6 days. A horse and buggy averaging 3.2 miles [5.1 km] per hour would take most of three days.
• The White House (Washington, DC) is 704 miles [1,133 km] to the northeast (NE). Driving would take just about two full days, a buggy would take 28 days and walking would take 40 days.
• The shortest distance<7> to Jerusalem (specifically the Temple Mount and the Dome of the Rock) is 6,596 miles [10,615.2 km] and it lies to the northeast (NE).<8>
• The distance to the Great Mosque of Mecca (specifically the Ka'bah - or Kaaba ) is 7,306 miles [11,757.9 km] and it lies to the northeast (NE).<9>
• The distance to Saint Peter's Basilica (The Vatican) is 5,182 miles [8,339.6 km] and it lies to the northeast (NE).<10>
