Home of the President of USA, this city is very unique with historical monuments, memorials and museums. We drove down from New Jersey, NJ which took us about 5 hours including multiple pit stops for coffee and bio breaks.
We stayed at a budget hotel here, which had access to the main city via shuttles plying every 15 mins. The main attraction of this place is the free museums, other than the Whitehouse of course.
Being the memorial day long weekend, the whole place was crowded with professional bikers, showcasing their cool custom made Harley Davidson bikes, and paraded the streets with their stunt biking.
We mostly walked around the main city, covering most of the memorials and museums. To get to places further away, the metro is pretty accessible and well connected.
The National monument looked spectacular by night, with flags hoisted and lights in the color of the US flag. America surely knows how to put up a show 😀
