Right on the Catholic University of America campus is the Shrine of Immaculate Conception. It's pretty far north in the city, so it was a Metro ride away, and really was in the 'burbs. but was a really good experience to see some real D.C. The Shrine is located right in the centre of the campus, and is absolutely massive. I couldn't believe how big it was. We couldn't go in for some reason, but we could take some photos of the amazing mosaic dome roof and all the carvings all over the wall. It was seriously, seriously hot so we didn't stay long and decided to get back to the city and the Hard Rock Cafe's air conditioning!
