Arlington (VA) at a Glance
About Arlington (VA)
Arlington, Virginia, is an unmissable destination for history buffs and those who appreciate military might. The iconic Arlington National Cemetery, where President John F. Kennedy and the Unknown Soldier are buried, is a poignant standout attraction that leaves a lasting impression. Travellers also rave about the Changing of the Guard ceremony, a solemn and respectful tradition that takes place daily at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
The best time to visit Arlington is during the spring (April-May) and autumn (September-October) when the weather is mild and the cherry blossoms are in bloom, adding a pop of color to the city's scenic views. For first-timers, a practical tip is to take the Metrorail, which offers easy and convenient access to popular attractions like the Pentagon and the National Mall, just a short ride away from Arlington's city center.
