Drinks & Nightlife

If you like whiskey and Asian street food, you will love Copy Cat Co! They serve up both unique and classic cocktails (both equally delicious) and bao buns, skewers and dumplings. As the bar is quite small, it gets crowded- but it's worth it!

Nothing fancy, but a friendly and casual place to grab a drink. On weekends it turns into more of a club atmosphere upstairs.

This is a German-style beer garden that has a wonderful outdoor space- perfect for a lovely evening sitting outside. Nice selection of beers and they serve snacks like soft pretzels as well. A very fun spot!

Sightseeing

Take a walk around the Capitol Building and stop by the Botanic Garden on your way back around. Free admission and lots to see. I particularly love the orchid room!

You will find a number of free museums along the National Mall as well as views of the Capitol and Washington Monument. You can't go wrong with any of the museums, but the American History and National Gallery of Art are favorites of ours.

Stroll around the tidal basin to take in views of some of the major DC monuments including the Jefferson and FDR. This is where you will find the beautiful cherry blossoms in the spring.

Take a walk from the World War II memorial across the reflecting pool to the steps of the Lincoln. From there you will get a wonderful view of the Washington Monument and Capitol building!

The Capitol building is about a mile from the house and is definitely worth a trip! From here, it is not far to the Smithsonian museums on the National Mall.

Parks & Nature

This is a hidden gem (and free of charge)! Once you enter the Arboretum, you won't feel like you're in the city any more! You will need a car or a cab to get here, but it's worth it. Check out the azalea collection and the cherry blossoms in the spring and the crepe myrtles in the summer. The Asian collection is a favorite of mine. Don't miss the Bonsai display near the visitor's center!

Entertainment & Activities

If you'd like to catch an independent film, check out this pop-up movie theater. They sell gourmet snacks as well as beer and wine. It's a much smaller, more intimate experience than a large theater.
