  • 枫下沙龙 / 游山玩水 / 华盛顿夏日游 -- 7月中去华盛顿玩了一圈,行程安排方面得益于颇多,非常感谢rolia。文字水平有限,发几张照片吧...
    • 华盛顿夏日游 -- 肯尼狄中心听音乐会

      清早6点前就出发,车经过数小时狂奔,4点多到达旅馆,8点在肯尼狄中心(Kennedy Center)有American National Youth Symphony Orchestra 音乐会, Joeshua Bell和乐队演奏了老柴的d大调小提琴协奏曲. 这支青年乐队只成立了半年左右,华盛顿演出后就去俄国英国等欧洲国家巡演

      演出是不让照相的,演出前偷偷按一张

      演出后演员会从staging gate出来,和等在这个大厅的亲友们见面, 表姐家孩子在乐队拉小提琴...

    • 华盛顿夏日游 -- 著名地标

      著名地标

      游华盛顿,著名地标是必须去的,但多是趁傍晚凉快去,有些就是老远拍张照。惭愧只有一次带三脚架

      Washington Memorial

      Lincoln Memorial from World War II Memorial

      Washing Memorial from World War II Memorial

      World Wall II Memorial



      Korean War Memorial



      Vienan War Memorial

      Capital Hill

    • 华盛顿夏日游 -- 免费演出

      误打误撞,到国会山前看到有人在准备演出,是海军的爵士乐队夏天每周一8点在国会山演出1小时





      每周二晚7点, 在著名的海军陆战队雕像下, 有Marine Sunset Parade,有军乐队和仪仗兵操练

    • 盛顿夏日游 -- 免费博物馆(建筑片,展品待续)

      National Museum of Nature History

      自然博物馆是孩子的最爱,结果前后去了3次,遇到蝴蝶馆免费。。。



      National Gallery of Art



      National Museum of American History



      National Air and Space Museum



      National Museum of American Art and Gallery of Portrait





      National Museum of Indian Art



      Freer Gallery of Art

      中国及东方艺术品,有好多中国青铜器,名人字画



      National Museum of African Art

      Smithsonian Institution

      这里没什么好玩,就是个information centre

    • 好帖,也计划8月底去,如果只去华盛顿,几天比较好,去博物馆的话,是开车好,还是坐地铁好?
      • We stayed 5 days. We didn't take transit, all drive.
        It's free parking on street at weekend. 3 hours free parking on street around National Mall for museums. Roadside meter parking, some use quarters coin only, 2 hours max, $4. Even garage parking, $22 for all day (until 11pm). Could be cheaper than 3 persons bus fare a day. We feels it's easier. We found 3 hours free parking in 3 week days, so that we could go back hotel for a nap.

        The ridiculous thing is a Costco mall near Pentagon charges $2/hour parking fee.

        Don't forget GPS. We heard so many "re-calculating..." :D
    • national mall那个区域好骑自行车吗?打算租一个自行车先转一圈.
      • 自行车can go anywhere
        • 太好了,总羡慕别人骑自行车,这回自己也试试.
    • 去过几次了,看你的照片才发现晚上也很漂亮,THX!
      • 如果以摄影为目的去,一定会有更好的片,哈
        • 照片拍的特好,请问啥相机?
          • Canon 6D and only brought one lens EF24-105/F4L
            • 有水平!
    • 能把行程安排写得稍微详细点吗?我打算下个星期去.谢谢.
      • Let me try...

        • 谢谢.哪些博物馆是免费的?是有通票卖还是要各买各的?
          • All these are free, except the concert. Ford Theatre (where Lincoln murdered) can get free ticket for a visit. We rent a voice machine for $5.
            • 楼主的贴很及时啊,我们长周末去,想问问你从多伦多开过去,走的什么路线?有没有去grove outlet mall?谢谢!
              • 我改在星期五走了.长周末加拿大人去美国的特多.估计至少得3个小时过关.前年就是8月的长周末过去,花了将近4个小时等过关.
              • 跟着GPS,先指到Corning,就走上15号那条,山路不少,经常highway走着走着就进小镇有红绿灯了,小心驾驶
                • You can leave early like 6AMand it takes no time to go through custom.
                  We went through Peace Bridge. I like shopping in GroveCity Premium, no tax.

                  Remember to uncheck "Avoid Toll" when entering US otherwise the GPS will direct you on local highway which is very slow comparing with Tolled highway. The toll is not expensive, totally worth it.

                  BTW, US McDonald has $4.99 for 20 chicken nuggets, very good price.

                  Not sure if some one mentioned already, Parking is free during the weekend in Washington DC close to White house area. Go there early to get a parking space, it worked for us last time we visited. Prepare some coins for the paid road, $0.25 (quarters) will be good.

                • in PA, clothes and shoes no tax
        • 请问一下子看这么多博物馆会不会腻啊,每天走腿脚也受不了啊?哪里个最值得看?准备去个3,4天。顺便能去其他地方看看其他风景中和下吗?
          • my daughter like natural history museum, so we went 3 times. Many boys like Air and space museum very much.
            本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛George Town is a beautiful, but we just drove around.

            If like watch concert or performance, check Kennedy Center. It has 3 performance halls. The concert we went, with violinist Joshua Bell, ticket price from 35 to 65. There may have some free performance. check their website to find out.

            Ford theater, where Lincoln was murdered, near china town and American art museum. the tour is free to get ticket at box office. Don't book the tour on their website, which will charge $3 something. The tour show a exhibition at basement of the theater about Lincoln and Civil War, then go into the theater hall, a guy tell story about Lincoln murdered details.

            The Marine Sunset Parade, see detail at http://www.barracks.marines.mil/Parades/SunsetParade.aspx

            From DC drive 2 hours or so is Hershey, the chocolate world. there is a big play park with huge roller coasters, like wonderland. And a outlet mall, Tanger Outlet (46 Outlet Square, Hershey, PA 17033) has Lark, Polo, tommy, Bass,etc, only 2 miles from Chocolate world. Hershey area has Amish farms, but we didn't go.

            From Hershey drive around 3.5 hours is Corning Glass Museum. We spent couple of hours there.

            Hope these helps.更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
          • Update: 去了华盛顿的"富记"吃晚餐,跟多伦多的congee queen/king 差了十万八千里。
            • 我们点了"炒三鲜,蘑菇炒鸡片,素什锦"三个菜,端上来居然是一样的:都是西兰花炒冻玉米,和胡萝卜片,不同的是加点鸡片就是磨菇炒鸡片,加点肉片就是炒三鲜,什么也不加的就是素什锦!我完全惊呆了!厨师太有才了!
            • 我们去了个泰国餐馆,肉都咬不动,还贼贵,看来旅游区就是个宰
    • 请问有没有值得推荐的餐馆?价格大概人均20-30刀,中餐馆也可以。我们打算八月底去,因为有小孩,所以打算把四顿晚餐都plan好。
      • 吃的方面我们都是博物馆的CAFE,快餐店,甚至COSTCO烤鸡。别的朋友有经验请提供
        • buffet locate at 1401 New York Avenue Northwest, Washington, DC
      • 才从华盛顿回来,推荐你去华强中餐馆吃饭,停车就在华强边上的停车场(6美元现金),停车时间只到7pm。过了7点,停车场就关门了。千万不要去富记,参看我上面的帖子。
        • 华强的地址:Meiwah Restaurant,1200 New Hampshire Ave. NW, Washington, D.C. 20036, 味道不错!
      • 如果还没有订hotel, 建议订一个有full kitchen的。去Costco或Safeway买,自己做。晚上喝上一锅汤,很舒服的。
    • 展览会上的图画








      也叫"最后的晚餐"
