The world’s favorite guide books reinvented for the iPad
‘Lonely Planet guides are, quite simply, like no other’. New York Times

Full of color images and only the best of the city, Lonely Planet's Encounter Washington DC is the on-the-road necessity to get you to the heart of the city. Find the best attractions, restaurants, shops, theaters, galleries and more with our hyperlinked maps, top highlights and itineraries for short stays. With content broken down by neighborhood, Encounter guides make city travel easier than ever.
Our experienced, passionate team of authors and local experts immerse themselves in each city they visit, finding and sharing the unique experiences, and practical and honest advice, so you come away informed and amazed.

Sure it might feel like it's all politics and Obama, but DC's so much more than that. It's museums, chili dogs, salsa and discovering up-and-coming neighbourhoods like Columbia Heights and Northeast.
Local expert perspectives include Executive Director of DC WritersCorp on what makes DC fertile ground for writing novels, a real estate developer on the next best ‘hood, and a political journalist on the best celebrity- and Obama-spotting locations.
Lonely Planet's Washington DC Encounter guide gives you twice the city in half the time.
