Washington D.C. ~ America's MUST!

by gosiaPL - last update: Feb 6, 2005

SOME HIGHLIGHTS OF MY 2 DAYS' VISIT

The Capitol
~ The capital city of the United States ~

What more can I say about this amazing place? The good thing in Washington D.C. is, once you get to the central part around the National Mall, you'll find many of your must-sees close to one another, so it's easy to plan your sight seeing.

It's a city of great history, which remembers the nation's greatest leaders and honours its heroes - D.C.'s impressive memorials are quite exceptional and memorable. It's a city of grand classic architecture and dozens of museums and galleries, that will satisfy many tastes and points of interest. And yet it's a city that is so easy to slow down and relax in! Two days was not enough, I would need at least a week there to explore the museums and the lovely Georgetown village. I really hope to return some day to fill some of the blanks on my list. Now I understand why some people visit Washington D.C. yearly... you just can't get enough on one visit!

 I'm looking forward to my first visit to Washington DC and enjoyed your perspective and tips very much. I was impressed with your knowledge and appreciation of American history in many of your tips.

 Back for a review of your DC page. It's wonderful. My niece is taking 2 sons soon...first time for all of them. EVERYONE should be able to go.

 Very interesting tips and comments. The government buildings are much more interesting - and easier - for Americans to visit. There is a lot to see here, especially, off the beaten road. Good work.
