Long valued by Capitol Hill residents as a quiet retreat, the Botanic Garden Conservatory is home to some 4,000 living plants that have been arranged into themes and biosystems, such as Plant Adaptations, Tropics, Orchids, and Medicinal Plants. The wedge-shaped National Garden, to the west of the Conservatory, includes glorious colorful outdoor displays. The main court is a wonderfully fragrant spot and a perfect place to sit and rest, and there’s a Children’s Garden to keep youngsters happy (see US Botanic Garden).
