What are so�e g�od s�ots to ta�e Insta�ram ��otos?

DC is well known for the National Mall that has all the Smithsonian museums, monuments, and memorials but there is so much more to see. For instance, the ARTECHOUSE (showcases digital and innovative art exhibitions), Dumbarton Oaks Museum (a historic estate in the Georgetown), President Lincoln's Cottage, Tudor Place Historic House and Garden, and Hillwood Estate, Museum, & Gardens are exceptional places to visit and learn more about history of DC and its previous residents.

The best photos in DC are at sunrise and sunset with the blue & red sky, white building, green grass and blue river. Best places to be are in front or back of the Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial, MLK Memorial, Hains Point, Georgetown Waterfront, The Yards Park, The Wharf, Old Town Alexandria and United States Capitol.

What are so�e hidden gems yo� can reco��end? Some of the hidden gems in DC you don’t get to see with most tours are Titanic Memorial, Statue of Albert Einstein, Mahatma Gandhi Statue and the original Abraham Lincoln marble sculpture statue at DC Court of Appeals.

Favorite restaurants and �i�in� e��er�en�es? My top restaurants in DC are Sfoglina Downtown, Centrolina in City Center, Joe's downtown, Fiola Mare in Georgetown, Tail Up Goat in Adam’s Morgan, Bistrot Du Coin in Dupont Circle, and Lupo Verde on 14th St.

What's �he �est to get around? It depends on the time and day you are traveling. Metro, bicycle, and scooters are very convenient when it is heavy traffic or street closer. The Circulator is very clean, cheap, and convenient when traveling on bus on designated street and stop. 40
