24+ Landmarks in Under 24 Hours | Washington DC Travel Guide

Have you ever wondered how much you can do in one day of traveling to a city? We pushed ourselves to the limits with this day in Washington DC. We initially thought seeing 15 Landmarks, Monuments and Memorials would be the best we could hope for, boy did we beat that.

    What is your favorite Landmark to see in Washington DC - or you look forward to seeing most on a first trip?
  • I was raised in Washington but I've lived in Maryland for most of my life. I've seen alot of the monuments but there are so many that are new. I hope to visit The African American Museum and a few more of the Smithsonian Museums. My favorite is The Vietnam War Memorial.
  • @JScott-pt6hm

    I live here for over 45 yrs and you guys visited more place then I did. That was lot of places you visited in short time. 😀
  • @OldTrancer
    Wife and I visiting from the UK in June and we found this video really helpful and informative. Best tip for me was learning about the capital bike hire scheme. Never knew about it and I have been worrying about all the walking as I have arthritis in the knees. That tip alone has saved me so much actual pain so thanks very much for that.
  • I am hoping or planning to visit Washington,D.C. this year Summer to see these remarkable places or Landmarks in great joy & peace 2023❤❤❤
  • @Navet63
    Hey Josh and Rachel. I truly enjoyed this one. Last time I visited DC was 98 or 99. Something I now find so ironic is that the memorials commemorating those who paid the ultimate sacrifice, were built in almost exact opposite of when those Wars occurred. Good to see them finally built. One last thing. I noticed you highlighted what you had for breakfast on one day and for lunch another day, was exactly the same. Not sure if anyone else noticed that.

    When I visited the Vietnam war wall I burst into tears. I still have my POW bracelet with the name of Major Herb Dolby. And now I saw his name on the wall. I was about 11 years old when I got the bracelet. I think of him all of the time. who was he? Did he have a family? How old was he? Where was he from? God bless all our service men and women. 😔
  • Für alles Weltweiten Studenten kommen nach Washington DC.............................! Viel Glück & Erfolgt haben................!
  • @pnuhn1
    In one day you did half the National Mall. You still need to go back and check out the Smithsonian, Natl Gallery, Spy Museum and a ton of museums, galleries and memorials not located near the Mall. So plan for a week - maybe more.
  • Wünsche ich es Euch Friedenheit an jeder Familien Mitglied mutigen Soldaten für Freedom gekämpft haben................................! Vielen Dank allen Generäle noch Bemühungen gegeben haben bitteschön
  • @tedfisherHSCC
    So well done Josh & Rachael. You could package and sell this travelogue. Did work pay for your meals, airfare and hotel? We did some of the Smithsonian Museums and major monuments years ago. So much walking. You both must have collapsed after this tour. 👏👏👏
  • My favorite Landmarks in Washington,D.C. are: The White House,Lincoln Memorial, Washington Monument & Capitol Building with other historical places in 2023❤❤❤
