Observe money being printed

14th St and C St SW
Washington DC 20228

The paper currency for the US is printed in this building. Kids and adults will love visiting this "money factory." The guided tour is brief, lasting 30 to 45 minutes, but the line can be daunting. At the moment tours on a first come basis. Summer evening tours require tickets, which are handed out at the visitor Center. Visitors can see a display with a million USD1 bills and view dollars at every stage of production. The bureau runs 24 hours a day and prints USD450 million daily. Admission is free.
