"Not only can you find the National Christmas Tree, the Capitol Christmas Tree, and the National Menorah in Washington, D.C., the entire District of Columbia is rife with incredible Christmas light displays and holiday markets. For ice-skating rinks, head to the National Gallery of Art Sculpture Garden, The Wharf, or Washington Harbour in Georgetown. You might also enjoy The District's Holiday Boat Parade, which dazzles audiences on the scenic Potomac River, or Zoo Lights, a family-friendly event at the Smithsonian National Zoo. Otherwise, check out Enchant at Nationals Park, a winter wonderland including a Christmas Light Maze, a festive holiday village, and ice skating." - Travel + Leisure Editors
