Washington DC's United States Botanic Garden, situated at the foot of the U.S. Capitol, welcomes thousands of visitors each year who stop to stroll the gardens or visit the glass-enclosed Conservatory.

 

The exterior of the main structure, despite some additions and minor changes, remains much as it was in 1800. The 2-acre outdoor area is a spectacular place to walk and take some colorful photographs of native plants, including a spectacular Rose Garden in season, while the Conservatory boasts indoor plants from all around the world. Don't miss the newly-recreated "Jungle", with a walkway that sits 24 feet above the floor so visitors can get the full effect of walking through a jungle habitat.

 

There are a number of workshops held each week. While the majority are for adults, the U.S. Botanic Garden staff is always sure to include some fun hands-on activities for the kids. Families can stop at the Garden between visits to the various museums and monuments to enjoy some peaceful downtime amidst these glorious flowers and plants.
