The White House

Historic residence and workplace of the U.S. President, offering limited public tours

Summarized by AI

Inside the White House, guided tours let you walk the historic halls, learn about the presidents who have lived and worked there since John Adams, and see the beautifully manicured grounds, including the South Lawn and Rose Garden when accessible. On special days, families can experience events like the Easter Egg Roll, or visit during Christmas to see decorations and enjoy hot chocolate and gingerbread. Tours are free but limited, and must be requested well in advance through a Member of Congress, Senator, or in some cases an embassy. If you can’t get inside, you can still take iconic photos from the north side, the South Lawn view, or Lafayette Park, and appreciate the architecture, surrounding gardens, and nearby buildings like the Old Executive Office Building.
