From the Trusted Tours & Attractions website:

The newest addition to the Tussauds family is the Washington D.C. attraction, hosting a slew of exciting new experiences. Madame Tussauds is housed in the historic Woodies Building in the heart of the nation's capital.

The fully interactive attraction features exhibits such as 'Behind the Scenes' - where visitors learn about the trade secrets used to create Madame Tussauds' wax figures.

The Washington D.C. attraction does of course pay homage to some of the most influential and important political figures in U.S. history from Presidents to activists and assassins to First Ladies. MTDC also features Tussauds' signature celebrity style with its 'Glamor' area that allows guests to rub elbows with Hollywood's A-list, and a sports exhibit where visitors can get 'physical' with their favorite athletic idols.
