3 days in Washington DC – Quick Guide
The city of “Mr. President”, the one who can do all of nuclear war and related… Ladies and Gentlemen, Washigton DC, the capital of the United States!
You have to see, at least once in a lifetime. The Capitol, the White House, Georgetown, Arlington Cemetery, the Pentagon…
It is noted that the majority of residents working in the field of Government. A lot of people, in fact, walking around with badges government for road, and a part of them is dressed in military clothing.
The metro is clean, futuristic… costly. The most expensive I have ever found in the United States, with some races that can overcome the 4$. The rate, in fact, varies depending on the distance and time.
in estate, infernal heat and sudden storms can be a problem, Mediterranean climate is a few thousand kilometers away!
I stayed in the Mount Vernon Square, central area rather, in a few minutes you can be in the center.
I visited the city for 3 days, which are sufficient to visit most of what Washington has to offer, particolarisssssima including a visit inside the Pentagon (you can book tour of the Pentagon at this address).
In addition to driving-route and to its Google Map, where the zones are divided by color, gallery of pictures I took in Washington can be reached to this address.

If you need to reach the airport from the city Dulles, recommend taking the subway (Orange Line) fino a West Falls Church, e da lì il bus Washington Flyer (10$). Calculate good times, because the airport is in Virginia, about 40km from the city!
