Washington, DCquest

As we visit important monuments, memorials, governmental buildings, and museums in Washington, D.C., other parts of the country, and around the world, we need to think about the significance of the place.

Monuments and memorials are created in memory of important people and events. Monuments and memorials are places of interest for the public, and as travelers, we should aim to understand why memorials, monuments, governmental buildings, and museums exist.

Although traveling is usually for enjoyment, researching places before you go on an important vacation or visit is an invaluable experience. Deeper understanding of a place can add so much more to your experience when you finally get to visit the place you have studied.

I hope that becoming an expert on one specific place in Washington, D.C. will help you to enjoy our trip to D.C. even more! As we journey to the Capital city, you will be able to make real connections between the monuments, memorials, governmental buildings, and museums that we visit together.

Now that you have completed your task, we are truly "On our Way to DC!"
