There are no admission fees at any of the Smithsonian Museums. In fact, a
lot of things in DC are free. The National Zoo is also free. All of the
monuments are free. The Treasurury is free. If you grow up and live in the
DC area you tend to take this for granted. When I went to Philly to go to
college I remember being dumbfounded about having to pay to go to the zoo.
The people I was with couldn't believe that the DC zoo was free.
