Washington is a magnificent city. It's also a great town. The city is made up of official buildings and monuments, handsome bridges, and wide avenues. The town consists of neighborhoods with distinct characteristics, tree-lined streets and playgrounds, small shops, and corner grocery stores. Washington is the center of the free world, and it's also a town of individual communities. The White House, the Capitol building, the official monuments, all presented here through the perceptive eye of Santi Visalli, remind us yet again what an extraordinarily beautiful city this is.
