  • 1. ADC Map and Travel Center

    Maps and travel guides detail everything from the streets of Jakarta to the interstates of Iowa. Many are beautiful in themselves, and all are practical.

  • 2. Old Print Gallery

    The gallery presents a huge collection of fine art prints arranged by themes. An outstanding source for political cartoons, city views, sporting prints, and historical subjects.

  • 3. Politics and Prose

    A bookstore with a large selection of works on politics, culture, and government. A cheerful place, despite its serious selection, with a coffee bar.

  • 4. Capitol Coin and Stamp

    The shop has a huge variety of coins and stamps – in a correspondingly huge price range. For non-specialists, the colorful political campaign stamps, buttons, and posters will be of interest.

  • 5. Affrica – African Art

    This Dupont Circle gallery specializes in authentic African artifacts of the finest quality. The fabrics are astonishing in design and execution. Masks, sculptures, and jewelry are equally fine.

  • 6. Torpedo Factory Art Center

    The building was originally a factory to manufacture torpedoes. Today, the site contains 83 studios where artists and craftspeople create work and offer it for sale on site. Prints, ceramics, photography, painting, and sculpture.

  • 7. Balducci’s

    The gourmet ingredients here are of extraordinary quality, and the selection is astonishing. The wine choice is excellent.

  • 8. Sullivan’s Toy Store

    There is such a range of playthings here that it is as fascinating for adults as for children. The real stars are the items with a link to the past: model kits, craft supplies, board games, and kites.

  • 9. Copenhaver

    In Washington there remains an appreciation of the formalities of communication. Copenhaver sells the tools: elegant writing paper, envelopes, and pens.

  • 10. Kron Chocolatier

    This store is famous for its molded chocolate items – bears, sports cars, even the US Capitol. They also sell greeting cards made of chocolate.
