I gave this five stars because this is definitely a great place to go for anybody there are so many awesome museums to see and they are free admission. My two favorites are the National Air and Space Museum and also the national museum of natural history both of which are amazing. It is so fun to wa...
What a beautiful place. A wintertime visit to the city allows you to enjoy the night lights relatively early which are spectacular. It had been a while since I'd visited and I was amazed with the cleanliness of the place. Lots of scooters and bikes going around but mostly respectful and out of the w...
Lots of fun museums and cool monuments overall a good spot to visit!
Parking is horrendous but the monuments are beautiful.
If you are going to visit USA just 2 days for new York and 5 days for Washington as just opposite of of majority of people. Because there is nothing special at NY but DC with every single steps can fascinated you. Also cheaper and almost every museum is free.
Be prepared to do a lot of walking! Beautiful musuems and buildings. Lots of tourist unless you go during a slow season(winter)
Great day weather wise. Very few people out and about. Enjoyed walking in the mall.
Such a beautiful tranquil place. Our family loved it.
The Nation's Capital is a beautiful place with great sites and an abundance of events and activities to indulge every pallet.
I ve walked through the National Mall on several occasions. It s beautiful space, from the reflecting pool to the base of the Washington monument. The space can hold large crowds although some people overestimate crowd size here.
Picture perfect postcard scenery. In fact, you could probably enjoy it better online, then you wouldn't have to deal with all the crowds and all the walking! Worth a visit.
The shear scale of it is mindblowing.
The long walks between the different edifices are great for taking in the scenery and really appreciate the beauty of the place.
The Lincoln memorial, Washington monument, Capitol building... All amazing and worth the time.
Easily my favourite place in united states. Great city
This was my second trip this year. The first time was great! This time was eh. I think it's due to the time of year. Way to many tourists for my liking, there was trash all over. They had waste bins ....but they were over flowing. Parking was difficult to find. I think I'll wait for a re visit af...
It was the thrill of a lifetime to fly out from California especially to see the peak blossoms during the Cherry Blossom Festival!
Must see! Rent the little scooters they have around to see things faster if you're in a hurry!
Best place for family visit! I used to spend my weekend with my kids here
Awesome as always! We we're lost and Capitol Police officer Richard Nichols took the time to take us to our destination and chat with us about his favorite sites on the way. We were grateful and it really made our day.
Great for walking and photos. The food trucks offer a break along the way for snacks, ice cream, etc. The bikeshare and scooters are an efficient alternative to walking. Recommend downloading the apps beforehand. Or make sure you have space on your phone
Memorials inscribed of name of soldiers who survived and who has fallen. Beautiful and serene atmosphere. For those who love history its a sad and beautiful experience. Most memorials have been restored or are fairly new. Parking is available but you must walk to the memorials. Some memorials have s...
Just a beautiful place to soak in all of DC's best museums, most of them free, and enjoy the sights of the Capital and Washington Monument. Easy subway access, lots of food and drink available, and you can learn so much about our country just checking out the gardens on your walk.
A great place for a jog and walk to clear your thoughts as you view the Capital where our constitution lies and the other historical sites.
It's an experience. The museums, the people, food trucks and just the overall air are what make this a great visit.
This is always a place of inspiration and reflection. To see all the memorials and visit all of the FREE museums connected to the Mall one must allow several days and be wearing a very good pair of walking shoes. No matter how many times I visit here I leave feeling inspired with the knowledge that ...
It's really nice to go at nice. Just kind of a different experience with all the lights lighting up the monuments. I've been many times during the daytime but this was my first time going late at night and I was impressed with how many people were still there so late at night. It's quite the place t...
We feel respect. Looks like Cleopatra's needle. Under construction at the moment, so couldn't see closer. Look forward to a better looking monument.
The national mall is a great place to be socially distant in public. Sometimes there are temporary art installations.

Make sure to wear comfy shoes. Appearance is deceptive in regards to how far apart everything is located. Lincoln to the Capitol is 2.25 miles. If you start at the Lincoln and walk to the Capitol it is closer to a metro stop at the end. Going the other way means making a round trip to get back to a ...
Just love The National Mall any day, any time, even any weather. Always active with people, kids and dog walkers, bicyclists and scooters. The carousel, the sculptures and the grand buildings and monuments in every direction!
So much to see and to reflect on. Beautiful place 5 floors
always nice to visit the National Mall. Haven't been there in years. Lots of History lots of great architecture lots of people lots of food vendors. We were there during a giant Latino parade and celebration. What an interesting time out. But highly recommend swinging by whenever you're in DC and mi...
It's amazing. Once here, it just never fails to impress. The locals are friendly, the architecture is stunning and the atmosphere is grand.
Definitely one of the most iconic places around the world, hopefully you have this in your "bucket list" on places that you should visit! Be prepare for a good walk! (Around 6 to 8 miles) you could also rent a bycicle or scooter to make it easier, or you can also buy a tour, it's beautiful everywher...
Our countries capital can be amazing. It can also be a busy cluster and super hot n muggy. However the early spring and fall can be epic. Low crowds and some awesome weather. We borrowed hotel bikes and rode all around. I highly recommend bikes as walking can be slow and far. All the memorials are e...
Beautiful iconic building in from if the mirror lake. One of Washington's best monuments and near to all the museum's. Great place to sit and watch the world go by or eat lunch or a picnic
So peaceful a wonderful place to make memories and remember that freedom is never free.
Wonderful experience being in the Nation's Capital visiting the beauty it has to offer
Nice place to relax and enjoy the day. Clean and calm environment, magnificent memorials of USA history.
Spectacular monument very well kept and protected. It was fenced off so we were unable to get close.
Had a great day. Lots of awesome pictures and venues that are free. The museum's are in walking distance and there is plenty of food trucks and portable toilets near by.
Yes and yes! With 2 kids, eight years apart, there was something for everyone. We will return because it's ever changing.
Lots and lots of walking for one day. If you want to visit DC make sure you have more than a day. Lots of things to watch and enjoy the whole area. Don't miss the street food because that's awesome. You can see the Washington Monument far from the street. Everyone enjoyed a lot but made us so tried.
Vast area , losts to see and do, the muesuems are quite aways apart, so I'd recommend walking quickly if your time is limited. Food consessions are very pricey though, it's $11 just for a hotdog so I'd maybe pack something if your not looking to lose a couple of $20's.
The Geology exhibits are a must see! Stunning rocks and the meteorite section in particular is very educative. Very friendly staff, I enjoyed my visit and will def go back again next time I'm in DC!
Amazing! What would you expect from this historical place. You never know who or what you might see!
The grass is clean and soft, no need for shoes or sneakers
Great place, great museums and a great view of the most important building in the United States
The Trees are nice.But
The traffic and People
Density will try anyone's
Patience.
Neet Bike bling in the
gift shop
Let me tell you when you are out of shape the museum is a hard walk. But once you go through the different floors and see the wonders of all that is in there you are amazed. The prices for some of the items and food is WAY UP THERE IN PRICE. BUT unlike New York museums that charge for admission. You...
Always a great visit. Always bring family here. Great history!
This was one of the very best places I have ever been in my lifetime! I loved it! I hope to be able to go back and re-visit! I highly recommend that everyone visit!
Walked 4 1/2 miles R/T from Washington Monument to Capitol and back. Loved the people and sites. Will return soon.
Love it! Going to take you more than a day to even get to half of it.
Washington DC is always a great place to visit even in this pandemic very light crowds everyone seems to respect the social distance
I visited here during late afternoon, great weather little traffic. Very pleasant time for a leisurely walk
Beautiful and free. Plan on staying a few days. Early April is best time to visit for Cherry Blossoms. Be ready for crowds
This is a GREAT place to visit. The popular museums are clustered together, so it's easy walking but on most days parking is difficult. I would recommend using the metro or plan ahead to use a parking garage.
Awesome place for events in the city. It s a must stop.
Washington DC is great to stroll around. And who doesn't love the mall during a sunset.
So much to see it really takes a couple of days to see it all
Loved seeing the sites! Expect to walk but dont worry its worth it
Loved it to walk around this area. I did 20 km in one day feeling it now haha but still enjoyed it. Felt like I was in all of the movies that I have watched.
Beautiful yet crowded. The trick is to find a nice peaceful spot amidst the madness and calmly watch the world go around. Good place for that
It's in Washington capital of USA nice and must visit place.its very huge campus there are many things and museum there to visit. Specially if you are interested in USA history. There is space museum which is must visit place.
Views of capital, lined with museums, great people watching
