D.C.'s National Cathedral
Ryan and Maya live in Cleveland Park, a fine neighbourhood about a 15-minute walk away from Washington's National Cathedral. West Wing devotees will remember the church from a pretty dramatic scene towards the end of the second season. Melodramatic, say some.
In that episode, the President claimed that the Washington Monument could, on its side, fit into the cathedral. I believe him. That is one monstrous church. And it's just as beautiful as the show suggests.

Is it one of those touristy churches you have to pay to see?
It is and it isn't. It "suggests" a donation. So no one has to do it, and I saw a couple of people walk in and right past the box.
