Luoghi imperdibili
Una selezione per iniziare a sognare e organizzare il soggiorno — non un elenco esaustivo di tutto ciò che c’è da vedere.
Cattedrale
Cathédrale nationale de Washington
The Washington National Cathedral has a rare neo-Gothic architecture in the United States, with vaults, stained glass windows, gargoyles and gardens on the heights of the northwestern capital. Interior takes time for side chapels and carved details, while the surroundings offer an unobstructed view of the city.
Remarkable location
Smithsonian Institution
Smithsonian brings together several major museums in Washington, from natural history to air and space, often around the National Mall. The interest comes from the diversity of collections: meteorites, aircraft, portraits, fossils or historical objects make it possible to compose a very focused visit rather than to try to see everything.
Remarkable location
Cimetière national d'Arlington
The Arlington National Cemetery covers the hills facing Washington with white stone lines, military memorials and sober views to the Potomac. The tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the burial of John F. Kennedy are a silent visit, where distances on foot are more than anyone imagines.
Place indismissible
Old Town Alexandria
Old Town Alexandria It consists of cobbled streets and 18th-19th-century facades that serve as a permanent decoration at the Potomac. The walk between King Street and the waterfront works as a legible urban history, with a strong potential for strolling and encounters.
