Your exclusive guide to Washington DC: What to do and see in DC

If you think of Washington, DC as the city of politicians and power, you’re right. It’s the world’s most important capital city. But DC is much more than that. We’d go as far as saying that DC offers visitors more to see and do than any other city of its size in the world. Because it’s a planned city with no towering skyscrapers, it offers beautiful cityscapes, and it’s an easy city to explore on foot or by subway, bus, cab or bicycle. Best of all, you can visit most of DC’s important and popular museums, galleries and monuments without paying a dime – admission is FREE!
