Monuments
The most striking monument seen for miles around is the Washington
Monument. On one end of the National Mall sits the US Capitol
and the other end is the majestic Lincoln Memorial. Most
visitors will visit the DC monuments during the day - but a
different dramatic and serene experience is offered when viewing
them at night. Check out our
DC Night Tour section. View our new Tidal Basin page with details and
photos on the FDR Memorial and
Jefferson Monument.
Museums
The Smithsonian Institution has defined DC for visiting tourists.
Their museums include the ultra-popular Air and Space Museums and
Natural History Museum and lesser known ones such as the Museum of the
Native American and the underground Sackler Art Gallery. Check
out our Washington DC Museum Guide for more information and photos.
Neighborhoods
Washington DC is a colorful mixture of distinctly different and
culturally-rich neighborhoods. Some neighborhoods are famous
for their architecture, some for their eclectic stores or even
their tantalizing restaurants. Read our articles on the Adams Morgan
Neighborhood and Georgetown.
Architecture
Ornate stone faces and tall columns typify the architecture of
Washington, DC. A walking tour of the government buildings in
DC offers a view of the inspiring and extravagant architecture of
the era. Admire the photos on our
Washington DC Architecture page and our
US Capitol section.
