The Smithsonian museums are a must-visit, with everything from dinosaurs to space artifacts on display. And when you're done learning, you can stroll over to the National Mall and check out the Washington Monument - it's taller than you think! The World War II Memorial is another powerful spot to visit.
The food scene in D.C. is on point, with a mix of southern comfort food, seafood, and international cuisine. You have to try a half-smoke from Ben's Chili Bowl, it's a local legend! And for dessert, head to Georgetown Cupcake for a sweet treat.
But D.C. isn't all about politics and history - it's also got a vibrant arts scene. The Kennedy Center hosts all sorts of performances, from ballet to comedy shows. And in the summer, you can catch an outdoor concert at the National Mall.
