would go through here each day. Union Station after getting off the Metro. The
station reopened after a major renovation project in 1988 with shops, food
court, restaurants, and movie theater occupying the original
building. A new Amtrak terminal was added at the rear. It seems to be
Washington's busiest places as evidenced 20 million people visiting here each
year. Picture

quite impressive. This is where all the tours originate and the Food
Court has many options for eating places. Picture of Columbus
