Czego oczekiwać
1
Georgetown
Port Georgetown sięga wieków i jest dziś znany ze swoich brukowanych uliczek, zabytkowych domów i ogrodów oraz jest postrzegany jako dzielnica handlowa i gastronomiczna. Zwiedzanie okolicy na piechotę to najlepszy sposób na cofnięcie się w czasie i podziwianie parkowej atmosfery z całą starą cegłą i zielenią.
2
Kanał C&O
Historyczny kanał biegnący przez przemysłową część Georgetown, goście dowiedzą się o łodziach kanałowych i zobaczą działającą „śluzę” (bramę), która pomogła łodziom podróżować do iz kanału.
3
Stary Kamienny Dom
Z pewnością jeden z najstarszych budynków w całym mieście, to osobliwe miejsce jest prowadzone przez National Parks Service i ma piękny ogród, w którym można usiąść i odpocząć. Zbudowany w 1766 roku, do 1953 roku był salonem samochodowym, kiedy został przejęty dla zachowania zabytków. Teraz do nas należy cieszenie się i wspominanie prostszych czasów, kiedy w pobliskim porcie handlowano tytoniem i opowieściami.
4
Uniwersytet Georgetown
Ten prestiżowy uniwersytet jezuicki, założony w 1789, jest szeroko znany ze swoich programów medycznych, prawnych i licencjackich. Zobacz wysokie iglice budynku Patrick Healy i pomnik założyciela Johna Carrola. W ciepły dzień uczniowie będą wylegiwać się na trawie przed domem, rzucając frisbee, czytając i udzielając się towarzysko.
