Have you ever wanted to kiss George W. Bush? Give Hillary Clinton a big ole hug? Or simply see if you were taller than George Washington? Well now there's a place in Washington D.C. where you can do it all - Madame Tussauds Washington D.C. The premier wax attraction gives visitors an interactive, full-sensory experience; they will be able to touch, see and hear major historical events and celebrities in a way unlike any other Washington D.C. attraction.
The fully interactive attraction features exhibits such as “Behind the Scenes” where visitors learn about the trade secrets used to create Madame Tussauds wax figures. Visit "The Spirit of Washington D.C." and travel through history from the Founding Fathers to modern day politics with hands-on exhibits featuring George Washington’s inauguration, Abraham Lincoln’s assassination and the Watergate scandal. Madame Tussauds Washington D.C. also features Tussauds signature celebrity style with its “Glamor” area that allows guests to rub elbows with Hollywood’s A-list, and a sports exhibit where visitors can get “physical” with their favorite athletic idols.
Madame Tussauds Washington D.C. is located prominently on the corner of 10th and F Streets, NW in the historic Woodies building within walking distance of the National Mall, White House, Ford Theatre, International Spy Museum, Crime and Punishment Museum, The Hard Rock Cafe, and ESPN Zone.
