The National Gallery of Art is located in Washington, D.C. and is managed by the Smithsonian Institution. The building itself is divided into two buildings, east and west, which can be connected by underground passages or across the street on the ground. It also includes a sculpture park. The museum is free to visit and is closed on Sundays.

I originally went there for Leonardo da Vinci&#39;s original works, but when I arrived, I found that the exhibition part of Leonardo da Vinci&#39;s original works was not open, which was a pity. There are more than 40,000 products in the entire exhibition hall, from the European Middle Ages to the modern era, including oil paintings, sculptures, prints, sketches, etc. There are exhibits. It takes about 1 hour to visit here. There is a coffee shop inside. You can take a map to see the specific location.

泰迪小熊

Came on September 21, 2017. The so-called &quot;reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles&quot;, visited the US Capitol in person, and spent time to understand the relevant knowledge, only to have a more correct understanding of many details. The Capitol is called Capitol Hill because its name is Capitolium, one of the seven hills in Rome, the tallest of the seven hills, the important center of politics and religion at the beginning of Rome&#39;s construction, and the capital is the same root. The political center used to name the country is quite good. The Capitol is a neoclassical style building, beautiful and atmospheric, centered on the rotunda, the north wing is the Senate, the south wing is the House of Representatives. The public can visit for free and even sit in on the proceedings of the two houses, but it is necessary to apply in advance and the quota is limited. Due to time, we just went around outside and took pictures, but this is not a loss. After all, the building itself is very beautiful, and it is very popular from all angles, and there are more places worth seeing in Washington, saving time.

The White House

City Halls

Came on September 22, 2017. I heard that the White House has not been open to the public since 911, and we can only look far outside the fence when we go, so the White House has become a boring landmark, taking a photo of the tourists who &ldquo;come here&rdquo; to check in. There is a big pine tree on the south side of the White House, and I didn&rsquo;t expect it to be a &ldquo;landmark&rdquo; and a &ldquo;national Christmas tree&rdquo;... Well, it seems that you should pick Christmas to visit.

Lincoln Memorial

Monuments

Came on September 22, 2017. The Lincoln Memorial is located at the west end of the central axis of Washington, and the Capitol Hill in the east is located at the midpoint of the Washington Monument, which shows how high President Lincoln&#39;s position in the United States is. The Lincoln Memorial is a typical Greek architecture, supposedly to commemorate his contribution to American democracy, which originated in Greece, and the style similar to the ancient Greek temples also reflects Lincoln&#39;s greatness. There is no other point in the memorial hall, just take a photo and punch in. There is a small souvenir shop in the memorial hall, which is quite good to buy, and you can go shopping.

National Mall

Squares

Came on September 21, 2017. Between Capitol Hill and the Washington Monument, there is a large long green space, the National Mall of the United States, surrounded by many national museums and memorials, each venue is very interesting, a single place can be visited for half a day. If there is not enough time, it is not bad to take pictures. These buildings have different shapes, and the photos and punch cards are very popular.
