Car Rental at 'Alexandria'

On the four sides of the monument are four iconic landmarks - the Jefferson Memorial and the Lincoln Memorial , as well as the United States Capitol and the White House . The White House is the most significant landmark and the permanent national symbol of the United States. It is the official residence of all the presidents of the country. It is noteworthy that only the first president, George Washington, did not live in the White House. He headed the United States until 1797, while the construction of the White House was completed only by 1800. The original building has not been preserved - it was completely destroyed by the British in 1814. Subsequently, the official residence was restored, and today several halls of the White House are open to the public.
A unique historic landmark is the Capitol. Built in the best traditions of Empire style, it is of great architectural interest. The US Capitol is the permanent seat of the United States Congress featuring a rich interior decoration. Near the building is a vast garden, a walk through which should also be included in your vacation program.

Numerous city museums are of great cultural value. The most visited of them include the famous National Museum of American History . Its opening took place in 1964. The museum's exposition is devoted to the most significant historical events the state has ever experienced. Among the museum exhibits are reduced copies of the first steam locomotives and antique statues, a huge collection of historical documents and unique books.
