About Washington D.C.

     D.C.'s embarrassment of must-see riches--museums, monuments, memorials, galleries--makes putting together a sightseeing itinerary one truly daunting task. The U.S. Capitol and the White House define the jurisdictional entity known as the District of Columbia. The Mall, that green swath stretching from the foot of Capitol Hill west to the awe-inspiring statue of Abraham Lincoln, is where it's at for visitors, encompassing not only the National Gallery of Art, six memorials and one monument but many of the museums identified with one of the world's largest and most remarkable educational organizations, the Smithsonian Institution. But that's just part of the picture; Washington also has vibrant neighborhoods, a cosmopolitan diversity and cultural facilities second to none. With so much to see and do, spring's pale pink explosion of cherry blossoms is the lovely icing on a very special city.
     The seat of the federal government, the United States Capitol should be near the top of any visitor's must-see list. Its main ceremonial space, the Rotunda, is filled with paintings, frescoes and an encircling frieze that together present more than 400 years of U.S. history.
     George Washington is the only president who never governed from the White House, but it is one of the few structures in today's city that he would probably recognize. Antique furnishings, presidential portraits and graceful decorative accents make this house a rich repository of Americana.
     Climb the steps of the Lincoln Memorial and contemplate Daniel Chester French's powerful sculpture of our 16th president, serenely seated in a colossal armchair. Take a walk around the Tidal Basin when the cherry blossoms are at their glorious springtime peak (normally early April). Get dressed up and attend a concert, play, opera or dance performance at the world-class The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.
