Shopping
While CityCenterDC is a must see for folks who enjoy the thrumming energy of a modern urban landscape, it isn’t for the faint of heart.
There are always crowds, and there are always miles and miles of traffic.

This subterranean comedy club has an awesome atmosphere that you won’t find anywhere else in Washington, DC.
As you might expect from an underground building, it features a lot of dark walls and dimly-lit alcoves, but it gets filled with so much laughter that it never feels gloomy.
Instead, there’s a warm, almost cozy atmosphere as the comedians take the stage.

Sports
Baseball is the biggest sport for Nationals Park, but if your trip coincides with hockey season, you might also be able to catch a NHL game.
You can also keep your eyes peeled for concerts, papal masses, political rallies and other big events.
