Step Inside American History

The White House Tour is a truly unforgettable experience that allows you to step inside one of the most iconic buildings in the world and witness American history firsthand. Located in the heart of Washington DC, the White House is the official residence of the President of the United States, and a visit here is a must for anyone interested in politics, history, or architecture. The White House Tour takes you through several rooms on the State Floor, including the East Room, the Green Room, and the Blue Room. These rooms are filled with priceless artwork and historic artifacts, including portraits of past presidents and first ladies, antique furniture, and rare ceramics.

Took these photos several years ago now when you could still get a relatively close and unobstructed view of the #whitehouse. The North Portico in the first photo is where you could get the closest to the building without actually entering the grounds. It's a good place for a photo and an interesting reminder that in person the White House seems rather small. At least I thought so. #washington  #triplocal

In a hurry to work in the United States, if you ask me what I think about the United States, I can only answer: 5 days, so many places: Maryland, Virginia, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey , New York, Washington. When I set foot in this country, the Hollywood blockbusters, Coca-Cola, Wal-Mart, and iPhone that used to run through our lives ... be clear and accurate. Far and close!🤗

Many of Washington's attractions are about 3 kilometers from the White House. It is more convenient if you come by car, but it is still a bit tiring to walk at this distance. There are some trolleys for scanning codes near the Washington Scenic Area. It is recommended that you use it when traveling between the scenic areas. It is convenient, fast and not tired.

Washington, also known as Huadu, the capital of the United States, named after the first president of the United States, George Washington, near Virginia and Maryland, is a special administrative division set up in 1790 as the capital and directly under the jurisdiction of the US Congress, and therefore does not belong to the United States. Any state. Washington is home to most US federal government agencies and embassies in the United States. It is also home to international organizations such as the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, and the Organization of American States. It also has many museums. This is a quiet city with countless free museums. Walk through the Lincoln Memorial, the Washington Monument, the Houses of Parliament, the White House... to experience the cultural and political atmosphere of the United States. For many people interested in the White House, the White House can't make an online appointment. If you are an American, you can make an appointment with a member of Parliament. Non-Americans make appointments through your own embassy in Washington. It is said that China does not provide this service at the Washington Embassy, so the White House should not expect to go. But Trumps son once said: The White House is the most broken place he has ever lived...

White House vs Capitol Hill, which one is more famous?

Drive into Washington, mainly to visit the White House and Capitol Hill. Which one is more famous, the White House or Capitol Hill? In my memory, the white building on the garden roof is the White House, because every time this building appeared on TV, it was mentioned as the White House. Many people in China also think so, right? Actually, the white building on top of the park is the Capitol, and at the other end of the street that echoes it, the flat white building hidden in the grass and trees is the White House. Between the White House and Capitol Hill lies Central Park, a huge grassy and wooded park with familiar buildings lining the streets. Among them is the Trump Hotel, no wonder Trump can become an official! Before he became an official, he came to this strategic location between Congress and the White House, as the ancient Chinese saying goes, "a place that the Bins must fight for." It seems that Comrade Trump may make a comeback. Haha 😄😄

USA Washington

During the Washington cherry blossom season, it's really beautiful, but it's just a bit difficult to catch the few days when they're in full bloom. The photo was taken in 2016 and 2017.

The White House in Washington DC has a Visitors Center. It is harder to get tours inside now because of tighter security measures, but you can still manage if you plan in advance, but do not wait until the last minute. They book fast. #wintergetaway #wintergetaway
