About the District of Columbia (D.C.)

  • A metro area that offers the perks of a large urban area, Washington D.C. is home to plenty of restaurants, entertainment venues, a variety of museums, public parks, and other cultural sites.

  • It's easy to see how an ambiance like that of a much smaller community exists.

  • Experience the changing of the four seasons in the District. Warmer temperatures can linger into the beginning of fall, easing Washingtonians into the winter months. Then comes springtime, a popular sight to see with the blooming of the cherry blossom trees along the Tidal Basin.
