Here are just a few reasons to visit Washington, D.C. On top of being our nation’s capital, it is also the paragon of democracy the world over, wherein the three branches of government reside and convene, along with our country’s president, members of his cabinet, and those who held those ranks before them and will continue to do so in the future. A stroll along Independence or Constitution avenues past the majestic, white marble buildings is sure to inspire a sense of patriotism and nationalism for our great country and those who have given their lives to protect it. To read the words etched in stone on the Jefferson and Lincoln memorials echoes our forefathers’ true vision of our great nation’s potential. To climb the steps of the Capital, to visit the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and to read the names on the Vietnam Memorial further bolsters the their vision and serves as evidence of our unity as a people and a testament to our nation’s tenacity to overcome. Visitors’ wanting a bird’s eye view of the capital and its surroundings will enjoy a trip to the top of the Washington Monument, and a walk down Pennsylvania Avenue past the White House might even offer a glimpse of the President and First Lady. And don’t forget the Smithsonian, the Holocaust Museum, and other points of interest. Of course, there’s more to D.C. than history alone. It’s also a metropolitan city full of shopping, entertainment, and nightlife all its own. So, renew your national spirit and book a trip to the capital city for your next destination.
