Constantine's Cathedral(康斯坦丁大教堂), the Washington National Cathedral, is one of the city's most magnificent buildings and a true marvel. Although the foundation stone was laid in 1907, it wasn't until 1990 that this edifice was finally completed. During that time, the cathedral was built using traditional methods based on medieval European techniques.
The cathedral was largely the inspiration of one Greek-born sculptor and artist Constantine Serlis, who devoted nearly 20 years of his life to carving the stone that brought the national cathedral to life. The walk is led by Serlis's son, a stone carver in his own right, who manages to bring the architecture and surrounding grounds alive with his encyclopedic and intimate reminiscences.
A wander through the colorful fish market and marina down by the waterfront and a stroll along Embassy Row(使馆区), Washington's grand boulevard, are just a couple of other beautiful attractions.
