Highlights
You start at the Library of Congress and end at the Washington Monument. The map is a pretty straight shot, zig zagging down the mall. GPS addresses are a bit weird here, but there are street maps along the way and building locations are clearly marked. Check all museum hours if access is needed. You don't have to enter all the buildings to play.
