Washington, DC -- our nation's capital -- is unlike any other travel destination in the world. Its storied history extends back to the founding of our country, and virtually every neighborhood offers a glimpse into the past.
National monuments dominate the skyline, recognizing the sacrifice of those American heroes -- from our founding fathers to the brave men and women in the armed forces -- whose resolve and sacrifice helped to shape our country into the great nation it is today.
The District also serves as the seat of governement. Visitors can explore the halls of Congress and even the White House itself, where our elected leaders work to provide for our future.
The rapid expansion of DC over the last century has further created a rich and diverse culture, represented by people from across the globe. The city hosts numerous museums, art galleries, theaters, recreational parks and much more... almost all of which is easily accessible by foot or public transportation.
