Not Bored in DC

THING TO DO

Stand among the Capitol Columns

at United States National Arboretum

Twenty-two Corinthian sandstone columns from the U.S. Capitol's original east portico, reassembled in an open meadow with a reflecting pool. They look like a ruin dropped into a field, and they're a short walk from the main entrance.
