I spent a couple of days in D.C and while I visit this city almost yearly, I have never seen the ‘touristy’ sites. I usually go to D.C. to see my friends and enjoy some of my favorite meals (see here). However, this time around I decided that I wanted to see the sites that people from all over the world come to see when in this city.
I walked around for two days and saw the following sites that in my opinion are the must see sites when in D.C.:
The Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial
The Lincoln Memorial
The Washington Monument
The World War II Memorial
The National Museum of African American History and Culture*
National Gallery of Art
The Jefferson Memorial
The Holocaust Memorial Museum
*The museum was closed due to COVID-19 but is a must see once the city fully opens up!

I’m Binja, an African based healthcare IT consultant by day and an #Africancocktail at all times! Who is an #Africancocktail? Allow me to explain: I’m half Congolese (DRC) and half Kenyan (hella African) – that along with the fact that I’ve grown up in five countries on three continents has contributed to my being an amalgamation of cultures (or in my case a cocktail). Yes, I’m one of those ‘third culture kids’ who sounds British but speaks Swahili and French with an American accent. So yes folks – I’m an #Africancocktail!
