Description
While walking on the cobblestone streets, it seems that you could still hear the rings by the Liberty Bell, which has witnessed the founding history of America. Independence Hall (exterior, reverse side of $100 bill), is the birthplace of American modern democracy, where the Declaration of the Independence and the Constitution was debated and adopted. Next we will visit One Liberty Observation Deck, which is the only observation deck in Philadelphia. Guests will stand on the shoulder of Philadelphia's 'giant', Benjamin Franklin, to see the historic city through a splendid 360-degree view. In the afternoon, we will head to Washington D.C., and visit the Madame Tussands in Washington D.C. which is the only attraction you can get close to the “44 presidents” of US. We will have the chance to explore the inner structure of The White House, taking photographs with Oval Office desk aka The Resolute Desk. The great names will be memorized and honored forever. Next, we will visit the White House (exterior, reverse side of $20 Bill). We will also visit the U.S. Department of Treasury (exterior, reverse side of $10 Bill), Lincoln Memorial, Korean War Memorial and Vietnam War Memorial. Lincoln Memorial(reverse side of $5 Bill) is built in recognition of the great efforts of President Abraham Lincoln for American human rights, and the famous speech “I Have a Dream” by Martin Luther King Jr. take place right outside Lincoln Memorial.(Due to effect of early sunset during winter time, we will visit Lincoln Memorial after dusk.)

Description
Departure from the hotel in early morning, we will spend the day visiting Washington D.C., the capital of the United State. First, we will visit National Air and Space Museum. The Air and Space Museum on the
business street recorded the development of the aerospace industry. There are the Wright Brothers’ aircrafts in 1903, modern out space exploration, St. Louis’s Lindbergh's Spirit and the real Apollo 11 cockpit.
Also, this tour will take the D.C.Cruise along Potomac River to see many of the areas’ most historic landmarks and memorials in a unique way. When the DC cruise closed during winter, we will visit International Spy Museum instead. The museum is a museum exploring the craft, practice, history, and contemporary role of espionage. It is the only public museum in the United States solely dedicated to espionage and the only one in the world to provide a global perspective on an all-but-invisible profession.
The sightseeing also included the White House (outside view), America's seat of governing power. When we are standing in front of the Capitol Hill (outside view), the congress building in retro style will totally leap into our eyes. We will pass by Jefferson Memorial along with the Tidal Basin. And then we will visit Lincoln memorial, whose famous aphorisms was decorated on the wall. You can also pay tribute to the heroes sacrificed in the Vietnam War and the Korean War. The Vietnam War monument in memory of the dead martyrs was designed by Linying, simple and moving. The Korean War monument describes the intense and miserable battles.
If time permits, we will be visiting the Madame Tussands in Washington D.C. which is the only attraction you can get close to the “45 presidents” of US. We will have the chance to explore the inner structure of The White House, taking photographs with Oval Office desk aka The Resolute Desk. The great names will be memorized and honored forever. -
