Time Out Washington, D.C.

Time Out experts take the D.C. pulse — from the political powerhouse of the monumental core to the living metropolis beyond — and offer incisive critiques of the local culture. With the heart of the United States government inhabiting its monumental core, Washington, D.C. is one of the world's most instantly recognizable cities. Time Out's local experts give the low-down on this famous patch of land, its buildings and their meaning, and looks beyond the institutional icons to take the pulse of the wider Washington. The city's museums are world-class and definitive. Whether it's the 15 sites of the venerable Smithsonian Institution, the brand new Museum of the American Indian or the National Air and Space Museum, these collections reflect America's perception of itself. But beyond both the buttoned-down corridors of power and the national collections lies yet another Washington — a diverse cityscape that is home to a vibrant cultural life, with award-winning restaurants, innovative art and a unique home-grown music scene. Day-trip itineraries to Baltimore and Annapolis are also included.
