Great place to visit in Washington, DC

If you have never been to the National Building Museum, you have missed a glorious experience! Awesome great hall with huge columns and many exhibits including a permanent exhibit called “Washington: Symbol and City”. Best gift store of any of the museums – especially during the holidays. Daily docent led tours at 11:30, 12:30 and 1:30. Ongoing events such as the Building Zone for children ages 2-6 and “Green Community”. On Saturday, October 11th, you can participate in the Festival of the Building Arts with a nail driving contest, a construction vehicle petting zoo, a ballet featuring skid steer loaders plus glass designers, stone carvers and woodworkers. 10am-4:30pm at 401 F Street across from the Judiciary Square Metro stop. Stop in the Blueprints Café for lunch.
