Visiting Washington, DC 

Start with How to Get Into, Around And Out Of Washington, DC. 

tip: Washington, DC is laid out in quadrants, with the center at the Capitol - very few DC addresses are complete without their quadrant: NW, NE, SW, or SE. 

  • Here is our Beltway map
  • See this Wikipedia article for more details about DC's street layout.

Our nation's capital has hundreds of interesting places to visit and things to do, and many of them are free.
