Situated across the Potomac River from Alexandria, VA, Fort Washington is a vibrant suburb brimming with natural beauty and historical offerings. The most popular park in the area is the sprawling Fort Washington Park, which boasts plenty of opportunities for trail-walking, viewing wildlife, fishing, and watching seasonal Civil War artillery demonstrations.
Located on the banks of the Potomac, away from the numerous tranquil homes covered in lush greenery, is the bustling heart of Fort Washington—the National Harbor. Residents and visitors alike are drawn to the National Harbor for its many fine waterfront restaurants, impressive views from the top of the Capital Wheel, and the marvelous five-piece sculpture known as The Awakening.
Residents delight in the ample shopping opportunities available at the Tanger Outlet National Harbor, which features an array of brand-name stores.
