10 Best Museums in D.C., from History to Kid-Focused | Condé Nast Traveler

"The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum is an important space for somber reflection. Set just off from the National Mall, this museum is a worthy stop for visitors, school groups, and locals alike who wish to join the museum in ensuring that the horrors of the Holocaust can never happen again. The permanent exhibition here takes you on a chronological journey from the rise of the Nazi party to the ghettoization and mass murder of Jews and, finally, to their liberation following the Allied victory. Beyond the permanent exhibition, other exhibitions allow visitors to explore topics such as America’s role in the Holocaust or how Burma's Muslim minority, the Rohingya , became targets of genocide." - Amy McKeever, Adele Chapin
