Experience DC
There's a reason locals say they live in "DC" and not "Washington." That's because "the latest news from Washington" starts and ends with the federal government, not the city locals and visitors have come to love. DC is where you can access the world's best museums – many that are free to visit. DC is where you go to explore neighborhoods with homegrown businesses and diverse communities. DC is where you and your friends can make lasting memories from events, shows and moments you'll find no place else. Plan your next DC experience.
