Another highlight is attending public lectures hosted by the Library of Congress, located just west of the Capitol. These events cover history, literature, and politics, with many open to the public at no cost. During summer, the annual Capitol Fourth celebration takes place on the lawn, featuring live music, fireworks, and patriotic performances—perfect for experiencing American civic spirit.
