cold days have been left behind and we are approaching one of the most
popular moments to visit our nation's capital. If you are planning a
visit to D.C., there are some things you should know before you go.
After all, you want to have a great experience and see the things that
are most important to you.
These are some of the most important tips for those who visit Washington, D.C. for the first time.
If you want to visit the White House, plan well in advance.

Once you know the dates you will be in D.C., it is a good idea to start the plans if you want to enter the White House
