Washington, DC, the Nation’s capital, sits at the center of the region, which is traversed by the Potomac River. Visitors can see a plethora of monuments, museums, historic sites, and more famous landmarks including the U.S. Capitol, the White House, and the Smithsonian Institution.
Many of Washington D.C.’s famous attractions are found in Northern Virginia, which is located just across the Potomac to the west of the District. These attractions dates back during the colonial period to the emergence of America as the preeminent national power in the twentieth century.
