I loved the sparkly jewels. I got to see the hope diamond. Loved it. There is so much history within those walls.
The red brick exterior wall of the art industry building is also very beautiful. Not particularly famous in the museum group. However, the series of museums can be visited together, which is a good place to understand the entire American history.
The Art Industry Building is located southwest of Jefferson Avenue in Washington, an ancient building that looks very simple and solid, and displays mainly items displayed at the Philadelphia Fair in 1876 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the United States. From steam locomotives to the earliest refrigerators, reflecting the development of American society since the Industrial Revolution, is an interesting exhibition.
A simple and elegant building, it stands quietly in a beautiful garden, it looks particularly peaceful, there are documents, pictures and various real objects that show the history of industrial development in the United States for a hundred years.
