Travel Tips for Washington DC

 Ellipse

posted by wroadman

This park by the White House is quite fun! You're by the National Mall, you can see the White House and there are some statues etc around as well. Our favourite lunch spot.

 Ford's Theatre

A fascinating place, telling the tale of the life and assassination (right in the very building) of President Lincoln. Get there early to get a free ticket with a specific entry time.

 Vietnam Veterans Memorail

All the horribel things I learned about the Vietnam conflict came flooding back when I stood by this memorail. What a powerful place, really important that such things are never forgotten.

 National Zoo

What a lovely Zoo, I can't believe it's free! We had a lovely day out here just walking around, eating our lunch and enjoying the shows, a perfect family trip out of th city centre.

 United States Holocaust Memorial Museum

What a wonderful and sad place. The memorial is very thought provoking, and I really appreciate the way that genocide in all its forms is also covered. Not great for young kids. Book in advance, tickets are free.
