Washington, DC
The US Federal Capital City is simply one of the most beautiful and charming places of this planet. We spent there ten days, visiting the Congress, the Pentagon, the State Department, the National Security Council, the National Defense University, and several local think-tanks, notably the CSIS and the Cato Institute.
