Washington DC, USA
City introduction

The free-museum capital — monuments at night and cherry blossoms in spring. Washington DC is the Smithsonian bargain: seventeen free museums, the monuments' neoclassical drama best at night, the National Mall's two-mile promenade, Georgetown's brick lanes, and a food scene that quietly became excellent. Cherry blossoms (late March–April) are the famous window.
