Washington DC is so packed full of museums, monuments, cool restaurants and gardens, Charlie needed two weeks to fit it all in. So, in his second week touring the US capital, he takes in the United States Botanic Gardens with its massive greenhouses and the unbelievably beautiful private estate of Hillwood. But it’s not all about the gardens, so Charlie checks out the oldest saloon in the city and one of the newest, funkiest hotels, that has amazing views of the area. If you’re thinking of heading to the U.S. for a holiday, you might want to add Washington DC to your list.
Charlie visits Washington DC’s Arboretum
Gardening gone international!
It’s true Charlie’s love-affair with gardening knows no bounds, so over the next two weeks he’s in Washington DC to dispel the myth that DC is all about the politics. The gardens and greenspaces are just as impressive as the history itself. Sure, he’ll visit the famous landmarks like the White House and Capitol Building, but we guarantee you’ll be more blown away by how green America’s capital is, from the National Arboretum and US Botanic Gardens to the stunning Smithsonian and an incredible Franciscan Monastery. Charlie also visits some famous food joints frequented by Presidents and prominent locals.
