Take a stroll through a secret garden in the heart of Washington D.C. at the Enid A. Haupt Garden. Next to the Smithsonian castle, this four acre plot has fragrant flowers and quiet quadrangles. The garden’s are not well known, making them a quiet escape great for lunching on one of the many benches.
It’s free and open to the public and along with the beautiful scenery offers free wifi as well. Although at street level, the garden is actually located on the rooftops of the National Museum of African Art, the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery and the S. Dillon Ripley Center.
