Flight Distance and Flying Time to Washington DC

Washington DC

It is the current capital city of the United States, leader of the free world. Washington DC (District of Columbia) was once selected by George Washington as an excellent spot to settle; its access to the North and South made it an excellent tactical choice. This district, which lives near the flowing water of the Potomac, was born to prevent the capital from being in any one particular state. The city is rich with history as well as national landmarks. Washington DC is an impressive city filled with culture and diversity. College and professional sports is in DC; five star restaurants are in DC; and a thriving night life can also be found in Washington DC. All of this in the same place where one can go to find the home of all three legislative branches of the American Government.

No wonder this cosmopolitan metropolis has become a global hub for beauty, power, and control. The political energy is densely packed into this eclectic town with a mesmerizing energy. Washington DC stands as a monument to the democratic principles this country was founded upon.

There may be just as many tourists as there are politicians walking around “DC” these days. Millions visit the city to see the White House, US Capitol, and Washington Monument and many other historic sites. The National Mall is where you will find several memorials –some of which honor certain past presidents; the famed Smithsonian Institute is also located here as well. Another great thing about visiting these sites in DC: there’s no cost for seeing many key attractions.
