Located in the centre of Washington DC, this area is easily recognizable by the iconic U.S Capitol Building and other attractions such as the Library of Congress, the Supreme Court, the Folger Shakespeare Library, the National Postal Museum and more. Apart from its political significance, Capitol Hill is largely a residential neighbourhood made up of colourful row houses. Locals to the area boast clean open green spaces, farmers markets in the summer and unique independent businesses along Barracks Row.
