<strong>Washington</strong>, D.C.<br />
Located in the heart of the nation’s capital, Verizon Center is surrounded by<br />
an assortment of political, cultural, educational and social attractions. With<br />
more free attractions than any other U.S. city, <strong>Washington</strong>, D.C., is one of the<br />
most popular tourist sites in the world. Hockey fans can stroll through the city,<br />

Getting Around<br />
The District of Columbia offers one of the nation’s finest means of public<br />
transportation, the Metro. The Metro system is a clean, convenient way to<br />
access all parts of the city and some outlying suburbs.<br />
Metro consists of five color-coded lines, all of which stop at points within<br />
walking distance of Verizon Center. The red, yellow and green lines deliver<br />
passengers to the Gallery Place/Chinatown station (at the corner of 7th and F<br />
Streets), just steps from the front entrance of Verizon Center, while the red, blue<br />
and orange lines stop at nearby Metro Center.<br />
