1. Washington DC - White House Area & Foggy Bottom (PDF Chapter) Lonely Planet

This is the White House Area & Foggy Bottom chapter from Lonely Planet's Washington, DC guidebook.

The President lives at the center of the 'hood. The State Department, World Bank and other institutions hover nearby in Foggy Bottom. It’s mostly a business district by day, and not terribly active by night with the exception of the Kennedy Center for performing arts.

2. New York city guide: (ebook guide) Lonely Planet

New York is much more than the gateway to opportunity - it’s a city of triumph, a capital of exploration and experimentation; a place where one is truly free to be themselves.

3. California - Los Angeles (PDF Chapter) Lonely Planet

Los Angeles: land of starstruck dreams and Tinseltown magic. Intensely diverse and brimming with fascinating neighborhoods and characters, the city has pushed the boundaries of arts, architecture, music and American cuisine for generations. The more you explore, the more you’ll enjoy.

4. San Francisco - Understand San Francisco & Survival Guide (PDF Chapter) Lonely Planet

San Francisco hotel rates are among the world’s highest. Plan ahead – well ahead – and grab bargains when you see them. Given the choice, we favor boutique properties over chains, for they provide the greatest sense of place, but take what you can get at a price you can afford.

7. Miami - Florida, USA (Chapter) Lonely Planet

Blessed with almost year-round sunshine, Florida is a hothouse orchid – a bold, sexy, semitropical peninsula edged with bone-white beaches, caressed by teal waters and clad in lurid neon sunsets.

8. New Orleans city guide (PDF) Lonely Planet

New Orleans is all about experiencing the divine through mortal senses. There’s joy, from great food to the pandemonium of Mardi Gras and Jazz Fest, and serenity, in the shade between live oaks, or watching fireflies on Bayou St John.
