That's pretty neat and sometimes they'll have tickets for those available the day of, often if you come later in the afternoon. You'll have to go.
There's some ticket desks inside the Capitol Building. You just show up and say, "Hey, do you have a ticket?" And if they do they'll hand you one and you can go up and sit in to a session. Alright, the seventh thing to know about coming to Washington DC is about the time to visit. And, you know, Washington DC is famous for having some pretty bad weather. It gets a pretty bad wrap. In the summer particular, it can get really hot and humid in DC. In the winter it can snow. The best times to visit DC is April and October. I'm shooting this in October. You might not think this is the best weather, but actually this kind of weather here. It's breezy, it's about 70 degrees fahrenheit. So not too hot, not too cold. The humidity always makes it feel warmer here. So October is a good shoulder season month, hotels are fairly inexpensive. But the best time to visit, March or April for Cherry Blossom season. And yes, it can be busy, but the Cherry Blossoms are truly amazing and a sight to behold. You will be here with everybody else and their mother, so it'll be busy and packed. But the Cherry Blossoms truly amazing. Definitely don't miss that. But one of my favorite times to come to DC is actually in the winter. That time when it's cold, like December and January, there will be no crowds at all. There's like nobody because who wants to come to a place that's super cold. But DC actually isn't super cold. And if you're spending your time in all these buildings. The Capitol Building, the Smithsonian. You're not actually spending all that much time outside. And so the fact that it's cold doesn't matter all that much. And you can get hotels that, maybe like the Park Hyatt in Washington DC that often go for $500 a night in January are like $200 a night. So you can get some pretty good hotels for pretty cheap in the winter, winter, winter. Alright, the eighth thing to know about Washington DC, it's about hotels. I was just talking about those. So what do you want to know about hotels? Well the hotels, they can be really expensive in The District and so can parking. Good hotels often run an average of $200 to $300 a night. A lot of the people who come to DC obviously come here for the Government. The Government publishes this thing called the Government rate and that's often where the rooms start and kind of go up from there in price. If you are looking for some cheaper type accommodations, don't stay in The District. Stay in Virginia, either in Arlington. It's the city that right borders DC. Or Alexandria just to the south of Arlington. There can be some more inexpensive hotels there that are pretty close to the Metro. You can just hop on the subway, head into DC.
