DC is Beautiful in the Fall! We've loved exploring DC and we hope you will too!

National Mall & Monuments – Just steps away! Stroll past the Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, Vietnam and Korean War memorials—all under 1–2 miles

Tidal Basin Highlights – Wander along the water to see the Jefferson, FDR, and Martin Luther King Jr. Memorials

🎨 Museums & Galleries (all free!)

Smithsonian Museums – Choose from over a dozen museums, like Air & Space, American History, Natural History, and the National Gallery of Art .

National Portrait Gallery & American Art – Located in Penn Quarter, featuring both classic and contemporary art—plus a photogenic courtyard café

Library of Congress & National Archives – Marvel at the grand architecture, the original Declaration of Independence, Constitution, and Bill of Rights

The Wharf – A 10‑minute ride away, this waterfront hub offers live music (The Anthem), water taxis, paddleboarding, food, and fire pits—perfect for a casual evening en.wikipedia.org.

🚴 Outdoor & Active Fun

Rock Creek Park is one of DC’s best-kept secrets—it's a massive urban forest right in the city (twice the size of Central Park!). It’s great for outdoor fun if you want to escape the monuments and some hiking!

Kayak or SUP on the Potomac – If it's nice out (hopefully it is!) Rent gear at The Wharf or Georgetown (we like boatingindc.com) and paddle with views of the city.
