White House Tourists

Description

Tourists visiting the White House in Washington D.C., photographed by Chet Smolski. Until the early twentieth century, The White House was open to the public, but has since been restricted due to security concerns. However, free and public tours of the house, a tradition started by Thomas Jefferson, continue to the present in times of peace.
