Capitol Hill in Washington DC — view 2
Capitol Hill is the seat of the United States Congress, dominated by the neoclassical Capitol building with its iconic dome and intricate façades completed in the 19th century. This area not only houses the Senate and House of Representatives, but also features historic townhouses, lush parks, and important landmarks like the Supreme Court and the Library of Congress. Visiting Capitol Hill warrants a leisurely stroll through the grounds, particularly in spring when cherry blossoms bloom. Early mornings or late afternoons offer a quieter experience. Nearby, Eastern Market provides a lively atmosphere with local produce and artisanal goods, making it a worthwhile stop after exploring the political heart of the nation.
