Places to visit in Washington D.C.
Despite being a compact city, Washington D.C. is brimming with places to go and things to see. If you've got some spare time before a return private charter flight, we'd recommend the following to make the most of your time:
- U.S. Capitol: This is perhaps the most architecturally impressive and symbolically important building in D.C., if not the whole country. The Capitol building is where the Senate and the House of Representatives have met for more than 200 years.
- Washington Monument: Dedicated to the first president of the United States, and the city's namesake, this obelisk rises 555 feet into the D.C. skyline. It can be seen all around but is well worth a closer look if you have the time.
- The White House: This is home to the President of the United States. Get a glimpse of this iconic building while you're here.
- Lincoln Memorial: This building honors the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln, who battled to end slavery and protected the Union through the Civil War.
- National Gallery of Art: One of the most distinguished galleries in the world and home to a collection of around 150,000 pieces spanning the history of Western art as we know it. You can get lost in the beauty and wonder of the National Gallery.
- National Air and Space Museum: Get up close and personal with many of the creations and machines that have driven society forward for more than a century. From the Wright Flyer that flew in 1903 to the Apollo 11 command module which helped astronauts take the first steps on the moon, there are so many amazing things to see.
