Sights to See at Waterfront Washington DC

Just at the south of the National Mall in Washington DC, lies Waterfront, a neighborhood also known as the “Southwest”. Although it this neighborhood is one of the oldest, dating back to the eighteenth century, the city went through an urban renewal with Waterfront razed except for a few landmarks.

Now, Waterfront is home to many attractions and real estate, and despite it razed and rebuilt, there are still old areas such as the 200-year-old open air seafood market, the Fish Wharf. Since the Waterfront is not exactly a very touristy area, bus charter visitors will find it delightfully uncrowded with hidden gems such as museums and memorials, which are not even known to some locals.

A Gem in the City - Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens

When it comes to visiting a park during your charter bus trip to Washington DC, there is nothing quite like the Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens for an off-the-beaten-path destination. This is the only aquatic garden managed by the National Park Service in the United States, nestled near the banks of Anacostia River.

What used to be a vast marshland that covered the riverbanks of Anacostia, has now been turned into Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens, or whatever that is left of that marshland after being dredged for development. Here you can see a plethora of rare waterlilies and lotuses floating by the river in specially cultivated ponds.
