The interior is not as spectacular as the exterior but worth a brief visit. I must say that this is the best starting point before going to all Smithsonian museums. #smithsonianmuseum #smithsonianinstitution #smithsoniancastle #thecastle #washingtondc #wheninwashingtondc #visitdc #dc #travel #diasfamilyadventures #diasquad
