Did you know that DC has its very own underground city? Enter the matrix just beneath the Library of Congress. Most people think that this set of tunnels merely connect one end of the library to the other. Wrong! It is an intricately developed tunnel system that connects the library to the Capitol Building and other super secret places. There are newstands, donut shops, a bordega and even a subway system that is totally separate from the metro!
Just when you thought things couldn’t get any more mysterious, this place will show you that it can! Word on the street for decades was that there was a super secret subway under the Capitol building. It’s true! And Congressional personnel as well as Senators use it daily. How do you get it? Well, you may have to write to your Senator and ask.
