Emissary

Welcome to my completely unorganized but oh-so-helpful map of Washington DC! An absolute smorgasbord of my own travels and research, suggestions from friends and strangers, and many treasures found along the way, this is where I compile all things DC for my future trips and yours. Things I particularly love that you’ll find a lot of: ☕️ Coffee shops & bakeries 🌮 Local cuisine 🏛️ Museums of all kinds 🌳 Gardens & parks 🛏️ Boutique hotels 🍕 Small regional chains with good reputations All my guides in this category are $5 per 100 places included, but since I add to these constantly, you can lock down the lowest price today and gain a lifetime access! *Great public transportation; I suggest getting Metro Pass.

If you are looking for a guide to experience all the historical monuments and government buildings, this guide is not for you. I think there is already plenty of resources out there for the history buffs. Instead this guide is some of my personal favorite neighborhoods of the city and personal recommendations I would give for shopping, eating and just a little bit of history. You will may be surprised how much more there is to explore outside of the most famous landmarks!

Consider Washington DC as your next travel destination! It is the perfect destination for history buffs, art lovers, foodies and so much more! Plus where to find the best spots to photograph cherry blossom season 🌸🌸 In this guide I share all of my favorite places to stay, eat and explore!
