It's a great exercise and beautiful at sunset!
These stairs were made famous in the 1973 horror movie, "The Exorcist." Today you might find GU students and athletes using them for exercising, instead of exorcising.
Creepy! I won't be going down this stairs.
Best view of the district. Remember, no buildings can be taller than the capitol, so you can see everything.
Best view, Indeed. Even on a cloudy day.
GET SOME DOME UNDER THE CAPITOL DOME!!!!!
A free and beautiful view of DC.
Great views of the Monument and Capitol Building!
Awesome view and not crowded as it’s a hidden secret. Enter next to Starbucks on outside of Trump hotel.
Also an official doggy park really early and really late in the day. Amazing view of our fabulous city.
Great place to watch the sunset!
Wait for the sunset view of downtown...Its great
Thre views are awesome
Almost inevitably occupied by a photographer (usually w/ models or a wedding party), this fantastically scenic overlook provides a great view of the Key Bridge & Rosslyn; also some very neat graffiti.
Scenic spot on the C&O.
Oft overlooked little gem of a spot to relax on a nice day. Watch the boats, planes, and fish swim by and zen out.
Nice place to relax between sites and enjoy a picnic lunch!
Great Nature and walking/biking areas.
Gorgeous! Come here for the peak blooms of the cherry blossom trees! It gets crowded, so try to come during the week and walk all the way around!
Springtime in DC and the annual Cherry Blossom festival, well, blossoms. Music, dance and parades are laid on to commemorate a 1912 gift to the city of 3,000 Japanese cherry trees from Tokyo.
#CherryBlossoms: Out after nightfall? Rangers use Japanese lanterns to guide free evening tours. Friday - Sundays during the festival from 8 to 10 p.m. Read more.
Golf course, mini-golf, a restaurant, a pool, plenty of green space, breeze off the river and a very nice secluded loop to bike, jog or just relax.
Great location to power walk, jog, bike, and/enjoy the view!
If you're looking for The Awakening statue, it has been moved to The National Harbor in Ft. Washington, MD. It was moved in 2008.
The walk is longer than it looks. Comfortable shoes a must!
Parking is next to impossible in the immediate area during peak bloom season. Sunrise and sunset photos are great. For early sunrise photos get there by 5am to find a parking spot!
Take your time to feel. Try entire basin, hidden paths, mornings, evenings, sunrise, sunset. Her Grace & Stunning Beauty will embrace YOU. She is quiet yet very eloquent. Learn her journey. Be gentle.
Really awesome! DC needed something like this for years. Great crew, very clean and safe. Day time for the kids, evenings for adults. Highly recommend.
