Dupont Circle/Kalorama
|
In its beginnings, Dupont Circle (at Connecticut and P Streets, NW) was the neighborhood where Washington's elite lived and played. Today, it's the hub of cosmopolitan Washington. Victorian row houses and Beaux-Art mansions have been restored to house embassies, international restaurants, art galleries and museums. Some of these museums include The Phillips Collection, the Woodrow Wilson House, the Textile Museum, the Heurich House, and the National Geographic Society's Explorers Hall.
Culture and entertainment collide at the many cafes and bars in the area, where patrons discuss the latest in politics and art alike. Also, the circle itself, is a fabulous place to people-watch or play a pick-up game of chess.
