You’ve lived in DC for years, so you’ve seen it all, right?

Wrong. There are tons of unconventional and unusual things to do in the nation’s capital. Check some of these out and get ready to have some serious fun. Best of all, you’ll get to avoid the tourists when you hit up these hot spots.

Visit Logan Circle

The Logan Circle of today is quite a bit different from the Logan Circle of the past. There have been some major changes in a short period of time, and now, it’s the place to go to hit a trendy specialty shop or chow down at a high-end restaurant. Visit Le Diplomate for weekend brunch or make dinner reservations at Masa 14.

See the Monuments at Night

Stop groaning! Yes, visiting the national monuments is about as touristy as it gets when you go during the day, but you will get a different experience at night. The tourists will be back in their hotel rooms getting some sleep so they can wake up and explore again early in the morning. You’ll be out there with other residents, and you will see a sight to remember. The monuments are lit up at night, and it’s breathtaking.

Enjoy the Art and Music Scenes at the H Street Corridor

The H Street Corridor is becoming one of the top hangout spots for people who enjoy art and music. You will find lots of galleries that have local art, and you will also get to experience amazing music, especially if you go to the Rock and Roll Hotel. Grab a few friends and make a day of it at the H Street Corridor.

Enjoy Craft Brews

Craft brewing is exploding all around the country, and it’s really getting big in DC. DC Brau Brewing Company was the first craft brewer in the area, and it still serves up some of the best brews around. You should also check out Capitol City Brewing Company and others. You won’t be able to enjoy a standard brew again after you drink some of DC’s finest.

Speaking of DC’s finest, you can get the finest in automobiles at Safford Alfa Romeo of Tysons Corner in Washington, DC. Our vehicles are known to make quite an impression no matter where you go. You will fit in when you take in local art, hit up the music scene, or dine at a fine restaurant. You will even fit right in at the local brewpub. Your wheels will give you a first-class ticket to anywhere you want to go in DC and beyond.
