This week we arrive in Washington DC, the capital of the United States of America. Washington was named after George Washington, first President of the United States and Founding Father and governs the good course of US domination over the West since 1790. It does not belong to any state, has the status of an independent federal zone what is called the District of Columbia or simply DC. The city is also one of the most visited cities in the world, with more than 20 million tourists annually. A city full of elegance and refinement of tranquility and stylish people. The place where you can learn and deepen the history of this highly patriotic people. White House, Lincoln Memorial, The Capitol are just some of the sights you can visit and from where you can find a lot of interesting information. What is even more wonderful is that monuments and memorials are open 24 hours a day and visiting it is free of charge. Unlike New York or LA cities that are always full of tourists and they are agitated and noisy, Washington is full of tourists and yet it is extremely clean and quiet. I think that simply the vibration of the place and the way people are inspire the tourists and make the behave differently. I was glad to see people riding a bike in a suit, everything is so stylish and full of taste there, from streets to cycling. Haha. The architecture of Washington varies greatly. Six of the top 10 buildings...
