Today, I would like to share with you the five most famous tourist attractions in Washington, DC:
The White House
The White House, literally translated as "White House" and translated into Chinese as "White House", is the official residence and office of the President of the United States for the first family members to live in.
The White House is located at 1600 Pennsylvania Street in the center of Washington, United States, north of Lafayette Square, south of Lip Park, and the Washington Monument, is a white two-story building.
Visitors can visit the various rooms of the White House, including the Great Hall, Blue Room, Red Room and East Room. The South Lawn of the White House is where the President holds receptions and is the only official lawn that Americans can visit.
The White House, the Capitol, the Washington Monument, the Supreme Court, it's hard to imagine how free people are. The front lawn of the Capitol is covered with MATS and there are squirrels everywhere.
The sky here is indeed very blue, is the imagination of the sky blue sky, the sun is too good, so that I have not stopped immediately into the summer is not adapted to, a simple stroll back, to the feeling of dehydration
Driving then parking is difficult, we went around a few laps to find a parking space, the point is coming: bring a bottle of water is very important ️ Convenience stores and restrooms are not easy to find
Washington Monument
The monument is located just south of the White House, on the National Mall in the heart of Washington, opposite another Washington landmark, the Capitol Building.
Visitors can take an elevator to the top observation deck, which overlooks the entire Washington metropolitan area.
The scenery at the top of the tower is beautiful, but there is a small window behind the glass that really looks like a prison. The glue on the glass has not been wiped clean. In my imagination, it should be a large French window. Then you can stretch your hand out to .
Anyway, I think it's worth going up there.
The Washington Monument requires a reservation on the recreation.gov APP. If you forget to make a reservation, a ticket booth on the east side of the monument will be available starting at 8:45 a.m., but there will be a limited number of tickets on a first-come, first-served basis.
To enter the Washington Monument, you need to line up at the door and wait for the staff to assign and enter in batches. Autumn and winter friends to pay attention to warm ducks!
Lincoln Memorial
The scenic spots are more crowded, and the indoor light is dim, not suitable for shooting people, but it is very suitable for shooting, whether it is simply shooting statues and buildings, or shooting the distant monument and the National Congress from the Lincoln Memorial, and shooting the outside scenery from the top of the Washington Monument tower are good
The Memorial is located on the west side of the National Mall in Washington, D.C., in front of the Arlington Memorial Bridge approach, in line with Congress and the Washington Monument.
The whole building is rectangular and about 58 meters long, which is classical architecture. Thirty-six white marble circular columns surround the memorial, symbolizing the 36 states owned by Lincoln when he was president.
In the center of the memorial hall is a marble sitting statue of Lincoln, 5.8 meters high.
The memorial also contains a stone engraving of Lincoln's famous speech, the Gettysburg Address. Visitors can feel Lincoln's spirit and place in history here.
