How Do You Go Undercover At The Spy Museum In Washington, D.C?
The International Spy Museum in Washington, D.C., is the only U.S. museum of espionage and the largest such museum in the world. Its one-of-a-kind collection springs from the donations of hundreds of actual spy kits, recorders, code books, instruments of death and the like. The best way to visit the museum is to go undercover, so grab your Metro map and your notepad. Arrive at the Metro stop of Gallery Place/Chinatown or Metro Center. From Gallery Place/Chinatown, walk one block south on Seventh Street NW to F Street NW. Cross to the southwest corner of the intersection; the entrance is clearly marked on your left. From Metro Center, walk north on Seventh (away from the National Mall) and turn left at F. Go 20 paces and turn left. Enter the museum as though you were planning to visit the National Gallery and only stopped here out of curiosity. Once inside, retrieve your ticket for entry. Purchasing tickets online ensures your entry for that day; you may arrive any time prior to closing
