Answer:
I went with a friend to Washington DC, for a long weekend – three days, and we visited quite a few places, but the one I remember most is the National Archive building on Constitution Avenue. Apart from being quite impressive as a building, in terms of architecture, the fact that it houses all those documents relating to such important events is amazing, for me anyway.
I love history and all that sort of stuff and to be able to see documents and legislation that was signed into power centuries ago – and it's all there, right in front of you – for me that’s truly fascinating, but then I’m a history buff, I suppose.
I guess we must have spent a good few hours there, maybe most of the afternoon, and it was a shame we weren’t allowed to take any photos, but they’re prohibited, apparently because of the flash – I think it can damage the exhibits or something like that – anyway, I must have stood for ages just looking at the declaration of independence and other famous documents. And then we went for something to eat and drink before continuing to visit some other places close by.
It was summertime when we went, so it was nice and warm outside and it was nice to stroll around and really get a feel for the place. It’s an amazing place, with the US Congress and Senate and all the other important places. That’s one of the reasons I’d love to go back again and see some more of the important sites and historic places which we didn’t manage to see last time.
