The Library of Congress in Washington DC, USA is housed in a spectacular building.

Beautiful details are everywhere you look - in the mosiacs on the floors, the stained glass on the ceiling, and the wonderful pillars, carvings and paintings on the walls.
I enjoy stained glass windows - below is a close-up of one of the stained glass panels from the ceiling.

Mosaic floors are so decorative - the floors here are incredible.

The Library of Congress is one of the great places to explore in Washington DC. There are so many great sites to see in Washington DC that this building is often missed by tourists on their first visit. If you can find the time - don't miss it.

Stunning images of a very special place. Too bad not everyone visits the Library of Congress while in DC. They are missing something. Happy New Year!
It is a beautiful building. I like the stained glass and the mosaic floor. Happy New Years.
