Time Out Washington DC 2 [Paperback]

Time Out (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: October 9, 2001 | Series: Time Out Washington, D.C.

For many visitors, Washington DC means two things: Government and the Smithsonian Institute. But while these are certainly among the most important faces of the city, there's much more to the capital of the USA. There has never been a better time to visit this often-underrated destination: a new president has taken control of the helm, traditionally rundown parts of the city are being regenerated, and trendy upscale new hotels, restaurants and shops are wising up and moving in. The second edition of the Time Out Guide to Washington includes the low-down on what to see and do in town, from the most-visited areas such as the Monumental Centre to the quaint streets of Georgetown to the trendy districts of Dupont Circle and Adams Morgan.

This review is from: Time Out Washington DC 2 (Paperback)

I just moved to DC, and I was really lost here until I picked up this thing. The reviewers selected great activities, restaurants, places, etc. Each one I have tried has been worth my time, if not really outstanding. I've asked long-time locals about some of the highly recommended but low-profile places, and they have agreed that those are hot spots. The maps are very nice, and the style is extremely readable. If you need one guide to the city, this is as good a choice as any.
