awe-inspiring, inspirational, educational, and lots of
fun! There are places of interest and attractions
galore for all ages and many of are free of charge. In
fact, Washington DC is perhaps the most exciting and
best value destination in the United States. As the
capital city and the seat of its government, Washington
DC exudes power and influence. You can visit the U.S.
Capitol Building, home of Congress, and witness the
nation’s leading politicians in action, or step inside
the White House, home of the President since 1800. Take
a trip into the past and learn about the nation’s
history and heritage, or wonder at human technological
achievements, by exploring the many fascinating and
thought-provoking museums on the National Mall.
Admire the architectural
splendor and clean simplicity of Washington’s grand
neo-classical buildings and monuments in their sparkling
white marble, vivid against the city’s lush green parks
and lawns, and enjoy the cool, tranquil beauty of the
Reflecting Pool and the Tidal Basin, with its cherry
tree surround and springtime blossom.
