Smithsonian Institution

This is a government-run institution that maintains and runs most of the official museums. Since they are partially funded by the government, they have a number of great free collections that are open to the public and free of charge. The most popular in the Smithsonian collection is the National Museum of Natural History. This can be found in the National Mall. It is actually pretty big and very impressive. Quite educational and great for the kids too! Check it out!
