Agree with this, it’s often pretty quiet but is always relaxing and, at certain times of year, spectacular.
If you end up going in summer, bring a hat and some water else you’ll bake.

Bonzai Gardens at the National Arboretum are up there. This is a great time to go as some of those plants are currently in fall. Also, they have a 400-year old Bonsai tree that survived the atomic bombing of Hiroshima.

Not hidden, because it’s in plain sight and on many lists, but Planet Word museum doesn’t get enough hype. It’s great if you’ve grown tired of the Smithsonians.
A few trails I like run through Dumbarton Oaks Park, as well as the trails between Glover Park and Foxhall Crescent.
If you like to look at gorgeous houses, walk the Kalorama neighborhood.
Edit: Planet, not plant.

This sub is so salty. I love it. Everyone in here is channeling Omar from the Wire, "OP got me confused with someone who repeat hisself."

The L. Ron Hubbard House is a great place to get indoctrinated while being slightly afraid you're going to get kidnapped. I suggest showing up in the middle of someone else's tour so that your first stop is the basement.

You have no suggestions? Because I was asking people for their personal favorites.

No, it's not that one. It's other one. Right on the intersection. Can't remember the name to save the life of me.

Subway and Annie’s steakhouse too

To be clear, I'm asking for people's personal favorites, you know, like a conversation? If you don't have any suggestions, it's okay to not reply.

Kennilworth Park and the Aquatic Gardens.
Not at its best right now but get a jump for later.
