Experience the Freedom visiting DC with DC Mobility Scooter Rental

Washington D.C is our nation’s capital, the hub of our country, and our political center. But there’s a lot more to Washington DC than politics. Like cherry blossoms. And yummy food. And awesome art. And rad museums containing all the lessons we need to be reminded of lest we repeat them.

Here are my picks for must-see monuments in Washington DC:

• The Lincoln Memorial – Built in 1915, this is a beautiful, columned memorial dedicated to Abraham Lincoln. It’s situated at the end of a large reflecting pool that overlooks the WWII Memorial and the Washington Monument.
• The Jefferson Memorial – Situated on the edge of DC’s Tidal Basin, the Jefferson Memorial is located in an iconic sand-colored dome. In the springtime, cherry blossoms surround the monument and it’s super pretty.
• The Capitol – Visitors to Washington DC can see the building which houses the activities of the United States Congress. The Capitol Building offers free tours and special exhibits throughout the year.
• The Washington Monument – This is DC’s iconic pointy-tipped monument that stands at the edge of the grassy National Mall. While visitors could go up to the top of the Washington Monument in the past, the elevators are now closed for renovations until 2019.
• The WWII Memorial – The serene WWII Memorial is a tribute to all who served and died fighting in WWII. A beautiful testament to those who worked to protect our country, the memorial is located across the reflecting pool from the Lincoln Memorial.
• The National Mall – The National Mall is basically Washington DC’s backyard – it’s a grassy lawn where visitors and locals hang out on sunny days. Full of world-class museums (we’ll get to this later) and fun festivals, the National Mall is the center of many activities in the city.

Here's my pick of must-see museum in Washington DC:

• The International Spy Museum: At this museum, you will learn about real spycraft and real spies like Harriet Tubman, the Rosenberg’s (Soviet spies who handed over US nuclear secrets to the Russians), as well as fictional spies like James Bond. This museum is also very interactive: you can try your luck at code-breaking, receive your own covert identity, and also learn the best place to hide a transmitter (spoiler: the heel of your shoe) or how a lipstick can be made into a pistol.
• The Holocaust Museum: This museum is a somber tribute to the victims of the Holocaust, including a detailed historical account of Naziism and the horrifying events that occurred during the Holocaust. I’ve never walked through this museum without crying – it’s a very heavy but important piece of history that I think the museum does a great job of portraying and educating.
• The National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC): The city’s newest Smithsonian museums an eye-opening history of African Americans in the United States, including a walk through the times of slavery, the Civil Rights movement, and modern-day movements and pop culture. Everything is free to visit in the museum, but requires booking tickets in advance. To really dive into the history of African Americans in the USA (and to understand why we’re STILL reeling from that history) check out this guided African American History Tour, which also includes entry to the NMAAHC.
