United States Capitol

4.5/5
591 reviews
United States Capitol is an iconic building in Washington D.C. The iconic cast-iron dome was designed by architect Thomas U. Walter, and atop it stands the bronze Statue of Freedom created by Thomas Crawford. The entire building features a neoclassical style. Its core interior spaces include the Rotunda, the Crypt, and the National Statuary Hall. The Rotunda is located directly beneath the dome. At the center of the dome is the fresco "The Apotheosis of Washington," created by Italian-American painter Constantino Brumidi in 1865. The painting hangs approximately 55m above the ground, featuring a grand composition of allegorical figures surrounding George Washington. Above the walls of the hall is a "Frieze of American History," which presents important historical scenes from the colonial era to modern times in a continuous sequence. Directly below the Rotunda is the Crypt, which displays some of the statues from the state collections. Next is the National Statuary Hall, a semi-domed hall that once served as the meeting place for the House of Representatives. Its unique arched structure creates a distinct acoustic effect where a whisper on one side can be clearly heard on the other, known as the "Whispering Gallery." Today, the hall displays statues of historical figures sent by each state, with two from each state. The visitor entrance is located at The U.S. Capitol Visitor Center, where Emancipation Hall displays the original plaster model of the Statue of Freedom, and the exhibition hall features interactive exhibits that tell the history of Congress and the building.United States · Washington D.C.

The White House

4.4/5
1k reviews
The White House is the office and residence of every U.S. president, and since John Adams became its first resident in 1800, the building has been closely linked to the executive power of the United States. It was designed by Irish-born architect James Hoban in a neoclassical style, partially inspired by Leinster House in Dublin. The first president, Washington, personally participated in the selection of the architectural design and chose the final plan. The exterior walls were built of sandstone, and in 1798, craftsmen applied a lime-based white wash to the exterior walls to protect the porous sandstone from moisture erosion. During the conflict between Britain and the United States in 1814, British troops set fire to the interior of the building, leaving only the exterior walls standing, and post-war reconstruction began immediately. Today, the complex includes the main building, the West Wing, and the East Wing, with the Oval Office located in the West Wing. The building features an Ionic portico on the north side and a semicircular portico on the south side. It has a representative long-standing tradition of public tours — a tradition that began during the term of the third president, Jefferson, and has continued ever since, except during special periods such as wars. Visitors can enter the East Wing and some of the state floors.United States · Washington D.C.

The National Mall is a green park in the center of Washington D.C., stretching approx. 3 km east to west, extending from the Lincoln Memorial in the west to the United States Capitol in the east, and is often called America's Front Yard.

To the west of the monument, a long reflecting pool leads to the Lincoln Memorial, and to the east is the dome of the United States Capitol. The World War II Memorial, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial, and many other commemorative facilities are scattered throughout, which, together with hundreds of monuments and sculptures in the surrounding area, form a memorial axis that encapsulates the historical memory of the United States.United States · Washington D.C.

The Brooklyn Bridge is a well-known bridge connecting Manhattan and Brooklyn, with pedestrian and cycling lanes on the bridge. Walking on the bridge, boats pass under the bridge, and Manhattan is full of high-rise buildings. Beneath the Brooklyn Bridge is a beautiful park. The merry-go-round at the bottom of the bridge may help you regain your childlike innocence. The nearby DUMBO Art District can bring you the inspiration and creativity of American artists. In Manhattan, you can head to Chinatown or Little Italy for delicious food, or walk down the street near busy Wall Street and touch the copper bull that brings fortune. The bridge is also a frequent scene in American movies and TV series, such as "Broken Sisters", "Gossip Girl", "Gangs of New York" and other dramas.United States · New York

5th Avenue

5th Avenue is a major north-south thoroughfare in Manhattan, starting from Washington Square Park in the south and extending north to Harlem, and is often considered the dividing line between the East and West sides of Manhattan. The entire street connects the laid-back atmosphere of Greenwich Village, the high-rise commercial buildings of Midtown, and the museum clusters of the Upper East Side. Strolling along it is like flipping through a condensed portrait of New York City. For most tourists, the highlights are concentrated in the Midtown section: the Empire State Building, the New York Public Library - Stephen A. Schwarzman Building, Rockefeller Center, and the Gothic-style St. Patrick's Cathedral are lined up along the street; the 49th–60th Street area gathers long-established department stores and brand flagship stores such as Tiffany & Co. and Bergdorf Goodman, and the window displays and the buildings along the street themselves are worth taking your time to admire. Continuing north, the stretch along the east side of Central Park from 82nd–105th Street is known as "Museum Mile," where The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, and others are arranged along the way. This street is also the classic route for the traditional St. Patrick's Day parade in New York, and the holiday window displays are a street tradition that has continued for many years.United States · New York

Lincoln Memorial

Lincoln Memorialis located on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., United States. The entire building features a Greek temple-style design, with a solemn and elegant exterior built from white granite and marble, creating a dignified, solemn, and open commemorative atmosphere. The interior space of the memorial is simple and solemn, with the central hall serving as the core area of the building. The striking view in the hall is the seated statue of Lincoln, created by renowned sculptor Daniel Chester French. The massive white marble statue sits in the center of the hall; Lincoln's expression is calm, his gaze firm, and his hands rest naturally on the armrests of the chair. The statue is tall and solemn, complementing the open space around it, allowing visitors to feel a strong sense of historical impact as they approach. In terms of architectural details, the interior of the memorial continues the classical architectural style of the exterior. The tall stone columns, orderly structural layout, and soft natural light work together to create a quiet and solemn environment for visitors.United States · Washington D.C.

After finishing a long and stressful project, I booked this hotel specifically to treat myself to two days off. Staying here not only allowed my exhausted body to fully rest, but also revitalized my spirit, which had been drained by the project. The hotel's spa experience completely exceeded my expectations, the room's audio-visual equipment was professional enough, and they even thoughtfully provided DVDs of my favorite genre. After a bath, I curled up on the sofa and watched an old movie, forgetting all about work; I felt completely healed, inside and out. The hotel doesn't rely on overpriced hype to create a high-end feel; every experience is solid and thoughtful, making it a top choice for a relaxing stay. Its exceptional quality and extraordinary elegance, designed specifically for healing, are hidden in every detail.

Hudson Yards is definitely a popular attraction in New York, but its iconic building is about to be demolished, reportedly for safety reasons. Even without the iconic building, it is still very beautiful.

The Capitol Building is a magnificent structure with a massive white cast-iron dome topped by the Statue of Liberty. It houses the offices of the U.S. legislature (Senate and House of Representatives), and many laws that have influenced the United States and the world were enacted here. Visiting the interior requires advance booking through the official website. We found the visitor center; security was very strict, and liquids were prohibited, so we had to discard all the hot water in our thermos flasks. Inside, we first watched a 10-minute historical documentary in a small theater, then were divided into groups and given headphones for guided tours. The interior was filled with ornate paintings, exquisite reliefs, and numerous statues of historical figures. The guides enthusiastically explained the furnishings and stories of the historical figures, and we also toured the Senate and House meeting rooms and members' offices.

The White House is just a big white building, its lawn a striking green. Outside the iron fence, crowds of people are taking photos; tour guides wave small flags and shout instructions, while tourists crane their necks to see. A child, perched on his father's shoulders, points to a window and says he sees people, when in fact there's nothing there. Walking halfway around, the large trees in the backyard look older than the building itself. An old man stands across the street holding a sign, but no one pays him any attention. After ten minutes, my neck aches from the sun, so I turn and leave. Looking back, the building sits quietly on the lawn, just like in the postcard.

Came here on September 21, 2017. Between Capitol Hill and the Washington Monument, there is a long and narrow green space, which is the National Mall of the United States. There are many national museums and memorials around the square. Each venue is very interesting and you can spend half a day visiting a single place. If you don't have enough time, it's also good to take pictures. These buildings have different shapes, and taking pictures and checking in are very photogenic.

It can be said to be the most representative shopping street in New York. It is also very popular with tourists. It is a shopping district that must be visited when traveling in New York. Before the 19th century, Fifth Avenue was still an empty farmland. After expansion and construction, various residences and high-end shopping malls were built again. It gradually became today's skyscrapers. It becomes more and more lively as the night goes on. It is the busiest street in New York at night. There are also various classic buildings on Fifth Avenue. The Empire State Building, Rockefeller Center, and New York Public Library are all along the way.

The Lincoln Memorial is an iconic symbol of American history and a place of profound significance. Its majestic architecture, featuring the towering statue of Abraham Lincoln, commands respect and admiration. The solemnity of the Reflecting Pool, set against the backdrop of the Washington Monument and the Capitol, creates a breathtaking vista. Visitors are immersed in the spirit of freedom, equality, and unity, making it a must-visit destination. The memorial's role in commemorating one of America's greatest leaders and his enduring message of liberty and justice for all is truly inspiring.
