Discovering Historic Georgetown
Georgetown is a charming area with Federal-style architecture, cobblestone streets and fashion and design shops. The dining scene is defined by upmarket restaurants and waterfront seafood spots, while nightlife spans traditional taverns and intimate live music lounges. Georgetown Waterfront Park has a riverside promenade and gardens, and there's a bike path along the C&O Canal.

During sweltering DC summers, we typically spend more time fighting tourists for space on the
National Mall than we do actually enjoying the summer months. But this socially distanced summer is a little different.

When it comes time to load up your picnic basket, visit Thrillist HERE to find the best sandwiches in the District.
