Things to do Free Tour of Washington D. C.: Spies and Power

Did you know that Washington D. C. is the world's epicenter of espionage? On this free tour, you will discover how the U.S. capital has been the scene of eavesdropping, conspiracies, and leaks that have marked the fate of the planet. From Lafayette Square, we will start a tour of the most emblematic corners where legendary spies like Aldrich Ames or Robert Hanssen operated, whose betrayals seem to be taken out of a novel, but are 100% real. We will walk by the White House, where the government spied on social leaders; in front of the Treasury Department, a priority target during the Cold War; and by the National Press Club, a key point of journalistic leaks. We will also visit the FBI building, a symbol of internal control, and the Willard Hotel, cradle of political lobbying. We will end in front of the Capitol and the Library of Congress, reflecting on how intelligence and counterintelligence coexist with power. A tour that proves that, in Washington, reality always surpasses fiction.
