Getting Around on DC Metro

Exploring Washington DC via Metrorail Can Be Easy and Fun


Being steps away from the DC Metro Rail puts the splendor of Washington DC right outside the Cambria Washington DC Capitoil Riverfront hotel front door. Here are some examples of the many sites and attractions you can easily get to from the Navy Yard - Ballpark Station. As a reminder we are on the Green Line.

Take a moment and look around as the Metro offers some pretty unique looks at their stations. We may be biased, but we say the Metro is one of the more impressive and attractive rail and subway systems in the US.
