It is a very pleasant experience to spend a couple of hours in this gallery. In fact, it’s not enough to visit it once (given the size of it, and it’s always free to visit!). I particularly enjoyed looking at the architecture of the newer part of this gallery (see photos). Also, the vibe is really good and perhaps it has something to do with the abundance of natural sunlight. Definitely recommended to plan a visit to this place!

This was a very interesting museum. You will learn more than they teach you in school and the information is objective. The staff were very friendly.

The National Geographic Museum is a famous museum of nature and history in Washington, which is suitable for going with children. We think it is worth buying tickets to visit. When I think of National Geographic, I think of those beautiful photos.

The National Museum of History, located on the National Mall in Washington, was built and opened in 1964, and the museum shuttles visitors through a variety of scientific, cultural, social and military exhibits throughout the history of the United States for more than 200 years. Compared with the surrounding museum buildings, the historical museum of pure white marble architecture is quite low-key. It is highly recommended to use this as the first stop of the DC Museum tour, learn about history, and then visit the Lincoln Memorial and Capitol in Washington Square. The experience will be better.

Another Greek-style eclectic building in Washington, on the northeast side of the Capitol, next to the State Court, and across a small road from Congress, this place is very small, but the building is beautiful.
