Product Description
It has been said that Washington D.C. is the only place "where local news is national news". More than just our nation's capital, the District of Columbia is a world capital where history is constantly in the making. Join City Productions as we take you to Washington D.C. Discover the origin of our capital city as envisioned by French architect Pierre L'Enfant. Take in the wonders of the world's largest museum complex, the Smithsonian Institution, where you can climb into a space capsule or view a Gainsborough masterpiece. Ride the state-of-the-art Metro subway system to Arlington National Cemetery, final resting place for scores of historical notables and military veterans. Explore the underground chambers of the Lincoln Memorial, a cave-like world beneath the famous statue of the 16th president. Take a walk down the Mall to the Washington Monument and learn why there are two different shades of marble on the great obelisk. Learn about the various outdoor activities available within the city. Enjoy the beautiful architecture of the Folger Shakespeare Library and other Washington buildings. Journey back in time to Mt. Vernon, George Washington's plantation. Old meets new in a wonderful blend of history and future. Travel with us to the city that has it all.
