Small garden at the cross of the White House. So many tourists around the White House. If you just want to relax, this garden is a good choice. At the same time can enjoy the White House

I think this is as close as you can get to the White House to take your photo. Nice park across the street

Some would say that it's near the white house and it's a quaint place to go

Were passing through and just want a quick pic. Where do u all suggest we park and walk?

Parking is restricted during rush hour so go after 6:30PM. With the combination of bus lanes and one way streets on both H st and I st, parking north of the park may be in short supply. Good luck.
