It is known as "the most historic square mile in the United States."

Morning U.S. Capitol As the political center of the United States, Washington has many iconic political and cultural landscapes, such as the Capitol Building and the U.S. Supreme Court. We will enter the Capitol Building, the geometric center of Washington, DC, walk along the gorgeous and exquisite congressional corridors, listen to the stories behind each mural and each statue, and deeply understand why this is the highest symbol of a government owned by the people, governed by the people, and for the people.
The National Archives The National Archives houses precious documents, photographs, and video footage from various periods of American history. Among its most notable collections are the original parchment manuscripts of the founding documents, drafted at the founding of the nation in 1776. These documents include the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. Other collections include the Emancipation Proclamation of 1863, issued by Lincoln during the Civil War to free slaves, the surrender of Nazi Germany at the end of World War II, and the Watergate tapes that exposed Richard Nixon's corruption and ultimately brought him down. or Washington D.C. In-depth Tour First, we'll visit the Air Force Memorial, composed of three curved steel columns over 80 meters long. Its design was inspired by the three white smoke trails left in the sky by the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds during their aerobatic performances. We'll then visit the Jefferson Memorial, which commemorates the ideal that "all men are created equal," in front of Taidou Lake. We'll then visit the World War II Memorial, which honors the 16 million American service members who served during World War II.
The White House The White House is a white neoclassical sandstone building covering an area of more than 73,000 square meters. It consists of the main building and the east and west wings. The White House is the office and residence of successive US presidents and is also synonymous with the US government. Many important US decision-making bills are signed and announced by the president in the White House. George Washington, the founding father of the United States, once expressed his views on the construction of the US President's residence: it must not be a palace, and it must not be luxurious, because the masters working here are servants of the state.
Lincoln Memorial The Lincoln Memorial is a white ancient Greek temple-style building built to commemorate the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln. It is regarded as an eternal statue of the United States and a symbol of Washington. It is also the most famous rally for the pursuit of peace and democracy. Martin Luther King delivered his speech "I Have a Dream" here.
Vietnam Veterans Memorial The Vietnam Veterans Memorial is located north of the Lincoln Memorial. It is a 500-foot-long V-shaped monument made of black granite. It is used to commemorate the American soldiers and generals who died while serving in Vietnam during the Vietnam War. The glittering black marble wall is engraved with the names of more than 57,000 US soldiers who died in the Vietnam War between 1959 and 1975, in chronological order of the date of each person's death.

All day Niagara Whirlpool State Park The Niagara Whirlpool is 125 feet deep and was formed by water erosion 7,500 years ago. It is located where the Niagara River suddenly turns northeast from the northwest. The rapid river water flows back after the change of direction, forming a huge whirlpool. The park is very quiet, with barbecue pits and picnic tables. Standing on them, you can overlook the whirlpool below, which is very spectacular. There is a trail in the park that leads down to the bottom of the valley, and you can take a speedboat into the whirlpool to experience the thrilling scene.
Cave of the Winds The entrance to the Cave of the Winds is on Goat Island, where there is a small museum and a small cinema. You can then take an elevator down 53 meters in the Niagara Gorge cave to the bottom of the valley. Standing at the foot of the falls, looking up, you will see the falls rushing down with overwhelming momentum, which can't help but make people feel passionate and resonate with nature.
Maid of The Mist The Maid of the Mist is the most monumental boat trip in the United States since 1846. There is no better way to experience Niagara Falls in the United States. Put on a blue raincoat and take aboard the dreamy Maid of the Mist boat to experience the refreshing mist, surging waves, and roaring waterfalls produced by more than 2 million liters of water per second. As a unique fleet of yachts, under the skilled command of captains, they have been sailing safely in the waves of the Niagara Gorge for more than 100 years and have carried tens of millions of tourists directly into the depths of the misty water. or Old Fort Niagara State Park The War Fort is a tourist attraction of great historical value. It existed at the mouth of the Niagara River leading from Lake Ontario to Lake Erie before the independence of the United States. Therefore, it played a very important role in the Indian-French War, the American War of Independence, and the Anglo-American War at that time. Behind it is the vast Lake Ontario, one of the five Great Lakes of the United States.
