The Capital Region

Holiday in the Capital Region of Washington DC, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia & West Virginia 

The Capital Region of the United States offers an incredible blend of history, culture, and natural beauty, making it a must-visit destination. At its heart is Washington, D.C., the nation’s capital, where you can walk among iconic landmarks like The White House, the Lincoln Memorial, and the U.S. Capitol. Dive into the rich collections of the Smithsonian Museums, which house everything from priceless art to space exploration artifacts—all free to visit. The National Mall provides a grand backdrop for monuments and museums, while Georgetown’s charming streets offer great dining and shopping. 

In Maryland, explore the bustling Inner Harbour of Baltimore, where waterfront dining, shopping, and attractions like the National Aquarium await. Virginia, steeped in colonial history, is home to sites like Colonial Williamsburg, Mount Vernon (George Washington’s home), and Jamestown, the first permanent English settlement in America. Just across the Potomac River, Arlington National Cemetery honours the country’s fallen heroes, while the National 9/11 Pentagon Memorial serves as a poignant tribute to those lost in the attacks.

For nature lovers, the Capital Region offers some of the most scenic landscapes on the East Coast. Skyline Drive and Shenandoah National Park in Virginia provide breathtaking views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, perfect for hiking, scenic drives, and wildlife spotting. Continue south onto the Blue Ridge Parkway, a stunning roadway that winds through the Appalachian Mountains, offering panoramic vistas and outdoor adventures.
