Welcome to Washington, D.C.

The vibrant, exciting heart of the nation

This is it. You have arrived. Washington, D.C. is our nation’s capital and the heart of America. It sits along the beautiful and picturesque Potomac River and was named for our first president, George Washington. Having its origins in 1791, it is steeped in American history. It is also the hub of the United States federal government and receives millions of visitors per year. It is one of the most important nation capitals of the world.

Today, Washington, D.C. is a vibrant, upscale, eclectic district home to many politicians and diplomats as well as branches of the federal government. Its center is the Capitol Building, which is surrounded by four quadrants that form the many neighborhoods. Washington, D.C. is the home of the President, Congress, and the Supreme Court.

When you’re living near the President, everything you need will be within walking distance or easily available through excellent public transportation, so daily use of a car is optional. The choices of restaurants, cafes, bistros, spas, salons, theaters, museums, etc., seem almost endless. There’s a down-home nature to Washington, D.C. as well, and locals enjoy their many farmers' markets for the freshest produce possible. Public parks for relaxation and picnics abound, and residents love their National Cherry Blossom Festival every spring for beautiful blooms, parades, food, and music.


Dining, Entertainment & Shopping

For the classic American diner experience, head on over to the Gatsby for their Seafood Linguine and Happy Hour. If an open-air meal on a rooftop sounds romantic for date night, go to Top of the Gate in The Watergate Hotel and enjoy the panoramic view while eating their braised short rib wrapped in bacon. If traditional Japanese food makes your spirit soar, do not miss the yuzu kosho chicken at Nara-Ya while enjoying the view of the wharf. But for simple and delicious American food, stop by the Old Ebbitt Grill, founded in 1856, for their fried oyster platter.
 
For singularly exclusive boutiques and upscale shopping, head to the cobblestone streets of the Georgetown neighborhood. You’ll find all the top-tier designers there such as Tory Burch and Billy Reid, approved by all fashionistas. 
 
After shopping, there are dozens of museums to check out in Washington, D.C., including the National Geographic Museum and the National Portrait Gallery.
