Monuments, museums, impressive government buildings and the home of the President of the USA – the White House, make Washington DC full of iconic landmarks.

Clean and green, steeped in history and culture is a city that is easy to get around. Take a walk up “The Mall”, an avenue of impressive sights from the Jefferson Memorial and reflection pool, past the Washington Monument to the Smithsonian Institute to the famous Capitol Building with its ornate dome rising in the landscape. Visit the Pentagon and of course the White House for a hopeful glimpse of President Obama.

The range of museums is extensive including some intriguing ones such as the Spy Museum –oh the secrets it could reveal. A visit to any city is not complete without doing some shopping so head to the historic waterfront of Georgetown - a shopper’s delight.

The history book has come alive….
