    Small but great place to stop to learn about the White House and the presidential families. Admission is free!

    If you cannot get passes to tour the White House, this is the next best option. Especially nice during the holidays, so you can see the grand Christmas decor.

    No wait. Good place to see things of interest and kill time. Saw the Armenian Orphan Rug given as a gift to the U.S. for help after the Armenian genocide.

    Digital exhibit is really well done. See 360 views of most rooms with neat trivia. Christmas ornaments!

    They have a piece of the White House that you can touch. It's a chunk of sandstone that fell off while Reagan was in office.

    You'll have to go through TSA style security. It's quick, but be prepared.
