Luxury Washington DC Holidays

Created by Congress in 1790 as a place to transact the affairs of government, Washington’s power still runs through the streets like the waters of the nearby Potomac River. Built to a plan by a French engineer, the central area boasts magnificent buildings like the US Capitol Building, the White House and the Supreme Court. World-famous monuments including the Washington Memorial , the Battle of Iwo Jima Memorial, and the Smithsonian Institute, one of the largest collections of museums in the world, can be found around every corner. Whilst here, explore centres of commerce and government like the Bureau of Engraving and Printing where the US Dollar is printed, the Federal Bureau of Investigation or the nearby civil war battlefields, and Mount Vernon, just south of the city.
