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.

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.

Gorgeous house and gardens with an amazing art collection. The largest foreign collection of Russian art is augmented with art and antique objects collected from around Europe. Totally elegant, a lovely way to spend your day.

National Museum of the American Indian

There's just so many great museums in Washington! The gorgeous building is meant to evoke stone weathered by wind and rain, and the interior feels similarly connected with nature. A really interesting and rich experience, would recommend it to anyone.
