Washington DC Information
It is hard to believe, but the land on which Washington, DC's elegant National Mall and its stately buildings stand was once a marshy swamp. George Washington created this special district as a federal power hub to avoid the problem of establishing the capital city in any one state. Its strategic location, with accessibility to the sea via the Potomac River and between the South and the North, made it an attractive site. Originally designed by the French architect Pierre L'Enfant in 1791, Washington is a city of green parks,

wide tree-lined streets and very few skyscrapers, all of which give it a European air. It is very much a purpose-built capital, a city of grand buildings (such as the White House and the US Capitol) and impressive monuments (the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial, to name but two). The city's designer, Pierre L'Enfant, envisioned open spaces for national gatherings. While it took more than 100 years for L'Enfant's initial plan to be instituted, the National Mall has been the setting for hundreds of gatherings of remembrance, national observance and protest. The Mall, with the Capitol at one end and the Lincoln Memorial at the other, is the backdrop to four presidential monuments, three war memorials and several museums. Almost all of the sights on the Mall are free, making it the perfect place for a quick museum visit or patriotic walk
