Library of Congress

My friend Fatih, visiting from Turkey, and I went to the Library of Congress, a stunning building that is often overlooked by tourists here (like who needs to go to a library in a strange city). He really liked it and couldn’t believe something like this existed in DC as it looks more European than American.

It does have an Italian Renaissance flair to it! Did you see the Declaration of Independence manuscript?
