Washington D.C. is considered the "seat of power" for our country. And while most of the "power spots" -- including the White House and Capitol -- are grouped together around the National Mall, there are other sites around the city that just can not be missed! Whether you are just visiting D.C. or you are a resident wanting to get to know the city you live in -- a fun and stress-free way to see all that the district has to offer would be to hire a D.C. Limousine to take you from the mall to other sites around town. A must see is the National Cathedral. Its highest point reaches 676 feet and it can be seen from many points of the city. Its design is influenced by Gothic architectural styles of the middle ages and the many gargoyle designs on the cathedral provide interesting objects to look at. High on the northwest tower, you can even spot a sculpture of Darth Vader! There are also over 200 stained-glass windows including one called the Space Window, which is a tribute to man landing on the moon! After touring the Cathedral, have a DC limo / DC limousine, service drive you past the Vice Presidents house on Massachusetts Avenue. If you're lucky, you might get to wave to Mr. Biden as he's heading out in his motorcade -- he might just turn and notice if you're in a D.C. limo -- and that would certainly be grounds to say you've met the Vice President! dc limo dc limousine maryland limo wedding limousine iad airport transportation Another can't miss attraction in Washington D.C. is the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. It is the largest Roman Catholic Church in North America! Its design is Romanesque-Byzantine. The Romanesque influence is meant to mesh with the districts other monuments built in that style. The Byzantine art in the basilica wows tourists with the beautiful use of marble and mosaic. Compare the architecture from the basilica to that of the cathedral and you will become an architecture buff in a day! On your way back from the basilica, swing by Union Station. Make sure to turn around right before you walk in the door -- the arches outside the station frame a beautiful picture. Flags line the traffic circle and the green space and senate buildings lavishly lay in front of this hub of transportation. Once you're inside enjoy a cup of coffee at one of the many cafes, or go shopping in one of many boutiques. You will be charmed by the stations marble floors and high arch ceilings, which in some places are 96 feet high! After a day of touring around, a nice way to wind down is to enjoy a play at one of D.C.'s many theaters. Arrive in a stylish D.C. limousine and avoid the hassle of parking downtown at the National Theatre where you can catch a showing of the acclaimed musical Jersey Boys (starting in October). While visiting, it's exciting to keep in mind that the theater has entertained every president since Andrew Jackson! You could also catch a show at the Kennedy Center, which is home to the National Symphony Orchestra. The center hosts musical and theatrical performances. Symbolic of its service as a leader in performing arts in the nation, is a hall of states which holds flags of all U.S. states and territories. Make sure you get there a little before your show so that you can look around the building. The center has a sprawling terrace which overlooks the Potomac, offering a gorgeous view at sunset. The Kennedy Center is also located right next to the infamous Watergate apartments. Make sure to tell your D.C. limo driver that you want to drive by so you can see the walls of a building that holds so many secrets!
