The Best Landmarks in Arlington

I was in town with a friend to see a Ranger's game, and we wanted to find something in town to do while we were waiting for the game to start. So we came to the Arlington Museum of Art, and I have to say I was unexpectedly impressed with what they had to offer. It's a small venue, but their pieces are carefully selected and displayed in such a way that takes you on a tour of the progression of the exhibit. And we happened to be lucky enough to get an actual guided tour of the exhibit, and this helped us to appreciate the works of art we were seeing in a way that we never would have gotten just by looking at them ourselves.

The main buildings architecture is beautiful and has a minimal impact on the environment. When you walk in you are greeted by somebody at the front desk that is happy to assist and answer any questions you may have. They have a few small exhibits inside of native species (red eared sliders, copperhead, and other small animals). They have a little play area then a room that overlooks a little pond. Once you look at everything inside you walk out the back and can go down the steps to the pond, there are fish and turtles in here that come right up to you. After that you can walk around trails at river legacy park. My 6 year old son loved this and the best part is it's free!
