The Best of NileGuide
- There's only so many museums and monuments one can take. When you start itching for fresh air and open spaces, it's time to delve into the outdoor activities of Washington DC. You don't need to be a fitness guru to enjoy the natural wonders of Washington DC either; these activities come just as active or relaxed as you'd like. So get out of the city, and get back to nature.
