Washington D.C. Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jul)

historic Washington monument in nov22

classic infrastructure to have fun shots like touching the tip of the monument. if time and weather matches, you can even get an eclipse shot (in 3rd and 4th photos) with the sun shining behind and casting a shadow of the monument. simply beautiful and perfect. best to go during good weather - was perfect in nov2022 where skies were entirely blue and weather was windy, not too hot and not too cold.

Washington’s Capitol, Lincoln Memorial, and Washington Monument are on the same central axis. if you want to take a closer look at the three landmarks, at least half a day, plus a day of eating and drinking. Then look left and right, it is the White House, Kerry Park, National Art Museum, History Museum. The most memorable museum is the Museum of History, you can stay here for at least half a day. These points are very close, and most of them are free. It is recommended to stay in the vicinity of the White House, stay for two or three days, and feel the free and relaxed learning atmosphere.

Grand Canyon National Park

Grand Canyon National Park, in Arizona, is home to much of the immense Grand Canyon, with its layered bands of red rock revealing millions of years of geological history.

Experience the US Capitol Tour!

We visited Washington DC and had to experience the US Capitol tour. Entrance is free, you just need to register to their online website before coming. The tour is very interesting. You will learn about the events happened that lead to what is America today.

us capitol

Definitely worth to visit the United States capitol. It’s beautiful and one of the political center of the most powerful country in the world. Easily spent several hours around the area to enjoy the architecture and the beautiful lawn. Worth to make an appointment to have a guided tour to inside the United States Capitol. Would be a great experience and definitely worth the time. Notice that guided tour inside the United States Capitol has been suspended since Covid. Hope it will resume soon and tourists can enjoy the tool again. Also, it is not a too bad walk from the states capitol to the Washington Monument and White House if you like walk. Beautiful and clean walk pass.

The Capitol Building is the seat of Congress and typically a part of anyone's tour of Washington. Provided the House of Representatives and the Senate are in session, it is possible to obtain tickets to get into the galleries in both chambers. These are available in the offices of Congresspersons and Senators. The second picture is the view looking up into the rotunda. #triplocal

Step Inside American History

The White House Tour is a truly unforgettable experience that allows you to step inside one of the most iconic buildings in the world and witness American history firsthand. Located in the heart of Washington DC, the White House is the official residence of the President of the United States, and a visit here is a must for anyone interested in politics, history, or architecture. The White House Tour takes you through several rooms on the State Floor, including the East Room, the Green Room, and the Blue Room. These rooms are filled with priceless artwork and historic artifacts, including portraits of past presidents and first ladies, antique furniture, and rare ceramics.

Took these photos several years ago now when you could still get a relatively close and unobstructed view of the #whitehouse. The North Portico in the first photo is where you could get the closest to the building without actually entering the grounds. It's a good place for a photo and an interesting reminder that in person the White House seems rather small. At least I thought so. #washington  #triplocal

In a hurry to work in the United States, if you ask me what I think about the United States, I can only answer: 5 days, so many places: Maryland, Virginia, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey , New York, Washington. When I set foot in this country, the Hollywood blockbusters, Coca-Cola, Wal-Mart, and iPhone that used to run through our lives ... be clear and accurate. Far and close!🤗

Many of Washington's attractions are about 3 kilometers from the White House. It is more convenient if you come by car, but it is still a bit tiring to walk at this distance. There are some trolleys for scanning codes near the Washington Scenic Area. It is recommended that you use it when traveling between the scenic areas. It is convenient, fast and not tired.

Explore Georgetown on bike 🚴

Georgetown DC is a very charming town with many cute row of houses, restaurants, cobblestone street and fashion shops. If you stay around this area, come explore at night where music bars, traditional taverns came to live. This is also where you can do most shopping in DC and the streets are filled with famous international brands. Cycling around is easy or you can also rent an electric scooter and start exploring. #georgetown #washingtondc

Washington, USA The Wharf waterfront pier

USA 🗓Itinerary: Washington The Wharf waterfront pier The Wharf waterfront pier. The wharf DC is the newest and most trendy area in Washington, completed in 2017. Here there are unique waterfront park and private yacht pier. Specialty restaurants, dessert shops, small music theaters, outdoor ice rinks are all available. DC's oldest seafood market is also here, where you can taste freshly cooked blue crabs. In addition, there are often outdoor performances and various celebrations. There are fireworks performances during the annual Cherry Blossom Festival. You can also take a water taxi to tour the scenery on both sides of the Potomac River, or take a boat to Georgetown and Alexandria. The weather is good and the air is clean, all photos are unedited, and no matter whether you are in the west or east of the United States, the sunset is a scene: very beautiful! Eating out in the United States is a headache. I don't eat beef and mutton. The meal style is not broad, that is, Thai food is more to my taste. To return home from Washington, you have to pass through Maryland, through the dark and dirty Baltimore Coley Park neighborhood.

Great place for children

An educational place for children, a nice bonus is free admission, a good cafeteria on the territory of the museum. #museum #washingtondc #childrenfun
