Washington Dc Pocket Guide

Images Of Washington Dc

Home to some of the world's most iconic landmarks, as well as the world's most powerful man, Washington DC is a surprisingly laid back city. When compared to the pace of life in other big American cities, things here are notably more relaxed. In saying that, this doesn't mean it lacks things to do or can't be enjoyable as its counterparts. It can - just on a different level. In one afternoon here you can see more instantly recognisable buildings than anywhere else in the States. You can also explore its various neighbourhoods, enjoy a host of different cuisines, or party into the early hours. Make no mistake about it - 'DC' isn't like other American cities, but this only makes it a breath of fresh air when travelling through this vast country.

    DC is the greatest place in the US to visit on a Budget

    I am absolutely in love with DC. The history, the monuments and buildings make this city unforgettable. I have gone almost every other month in the past year and never seem to get sick of it. Definitely a great location to spread your money far.

    Insider Tip:National museums (Smithsonians) are free, so you can save up to see great exhibits at the pay museums (Newseum is my top pick) Keep food in the hostel and meals will cost barely anything, though if you do want to eat out, the Smithsonians have great food in their cafeterias and though the prices are moderate, the museums are completely free! For nightlife, ask the people who work at the hostels. They live there, they know where the good places are! Want to look like a native? Pick up a Metro SmartTrip pa

    I found the location hard to find, and as a girl traveling by myself I did not feel safe walking in this neighborhood in the evening. Even though there was a shoes’ off policy, the carpet in the rooms were dirty and there was mold in the showers which I found gross. The beds were clean, and there’s a kitchen and free internet. When I was there in the summer the place was full of interns, so maybe its good if your looking for a place to live during a internship.
