'''Adams Morgan''', '''Mount Pleasant''', and '''Columbia Heights''' are three bordering neighborhoods in Washington DC, each with a different character, but united in an unmistakable sense of dynamism, diversity, youth, and dining.<h2 class=subheader>{{FULLPAGENAME}} Halal Travel Guide</h2>
Fountain - Meridian Hill Park - The Meridian Hill Park Fountain

Dubbed by the Washington City Paper as the '''Liquorridor''' and these 3 neighborhoods contain a denser population of cafes and clubs than anywhere else in Washington DC, and are an extremely trendy spots for a night on the town. There are plenty of great ethnic restaurants, most often offering a better value for your money than in Dupont Circle, downtown, or Georgetown. These neighborhoods are good places to see the city at its most dynamic; people from all walks of life, culture, race, sexual orientation, immigrants, natives, transplants, etc. all converge here to have a good time.

'''Adams Morgan''' is north of Washington, D.C./Dupont Circle|Dupont Circle and the Washington, D.C./Shaw|U Street Corridor. It is best known for the nightlife neighborhood on 18th Street between Florida and Columbia Road, which after midnight on weekends gets so packed full of revelers that it's hard to move down the sidewalk. It's more than that, though—it's a lovely, historic, culturally vibrant neighborhood, full of eccentric shopping, outdoor markets, great restaurants, and community murals!

'''Mount Pleasant''', with a population of roughly 11,000 people, is more of a small town in the city. Mount Pleasant Street is full of small shops, bars, and restaurants, primarily serving Latin American food. Although 50% white and the population here is 25% Hispanic and is the cultural center of the city's Salvadoran population, although the vast majority of the area's enormous Salvadoran population lives ''outside'' the city proper. It is nice for a Saturday stroll to soak up the Latin vibes, see some ''chanchona'' bands, and delve into one of the city's famous ''pupuserías''.

'''Columbia Heights''', like much of the city, was devastated by the 1968 riots following the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. The neighborhood includes the '''Tivoli Theatre''', home of the GALA Hispanic Theatre, and the DCUSA shopping mall, which includes several major chain retailers including Target, Best Buy, Marshall's, and Bed Bath & Beyond. There are many restaurants, bars, and hipster hangouts, lending to a vibe as close to that of New York's Brooklyn/Williamsburg|Williamsburg.

Columbia Heights is marked dramatically on its southern border by a geological formation known as the '''Fall Line''', which runs along Florida Avenue. This steep escarpment divides America's Piedmont Plateau from the Tidewater region of Virginia. If you are looking for a good view of the city, head to the hill on 13th Street just north of Florida near Cardozo High School. This natural formation is also responsible for the dramatic terraces and fountains of '''Meridian Hill''' aka '''Malcolm X Park''' which, aside from restaurants, is the major point of interest in the neighborhood.

===By Metrorail===
For more information on riding the Metrorail in Washington DC, see Washington DC#Get around.

The closest stop to Adams Morgan is the '''Woodley Park-Zoo/Adams Morgan''' stop on the Red Line, which is actually a 10 minutes walk from Adams Morgan's bars on 18th street. The '''Columbia Heights''' metro station on the Green and Yellow Lines is located at the main commercial intersection of Columbia Heights and is a few blocks from Mount Pleasant.

=== Travel on a Bus in {{FULLPAGENAME}} ===
The following are the main bus routes operating in these neighborhoods, along with links to timetables and route maps. For more information on riding buses in Washington DC, see Washington DC#Get around.

* '''  #52, #53, and #54''' operate north-south along 14th Street from the Washington, D.C./East End|East End through Washington, D.C./Shaw|Shaw to the Columbia Heights metro station, and then north to the Takoma metro station in Washington, D.C./Brookland-Petworth-Takoma|Takoma.
* '''  #H2, #H3, and #H4''' run east-west from the Cleveland Park Metro station on the Red Line Washington, D.C./Upper Northwest|Upper Northwest through Mount Pleasant, past the Columbia Heights metro station and the Washington Hospital Center, and on to Catholic University in Washington, D.C./Brookland-Petworth-Takoma|Brookland.
* '''[https://,2_161218.pdf #L2''' runs north from [[Washington, D.C.]]/West End|West End through Washington, D.C./Dupont Circle|Dupont Circle and then straight up 18th Street in Adams Morgan before veering west to the Woodley Park-Zoo/Adams Morgan metro station in Washington, D.C./Upper Northwest|Upper Northwest and continuing past the National Zoo.
* '''[https://,43_170924.pdf 42''' connects DC's downtown West End with the Mount Pleasant neighborhood. Like the L2, it begins at Farragut Plaza and travels north on Connecticut Ave, with stops in DuPont Circle, before turning right onto Columbia. The 42 has a handful of stops in Adams Morgan on Columbia Road before turning north into Mount Pleasant.
* '''D.C. Circulator's Woodley Park-Adams Morgan-McPherson Plaza Green Line''' stops at the intersection of 18th Street & Columbia Road and then the Columbia Heights metro stop, and then goes west to the Woodley Park-Zoo/Adams Morgan metro station in Washington, D.C./Upper Northwest|Upper Northwest, and then south along 14th street through Washington, D.C./Shaw|Shaw, and on to the Washington, D.C./West End|West End.

===By car===
The main streets for driving north-south are 16th Street and [[Georgia (state)|Georgia]] Ave, although 14th Street can be a surprisingly quick route north of U St. Major east-west routes are fewer and more confusing: Columbia Road is the best route to go between Connecticut Ave in Washington, D.C./Dupont Circle|Dupont Circle and the Washington Hospital Center and Catholic University and points in Washington, D.C./Brookland-Petworth-Takoma|Brookland.

====Parking & safety considerations====
It's not very hard to find street parking on side streets in Columbia Heights and to a lesser extent Mount Pleasant. Adams Morgan, on the other hand, is packed. Since these neighborhoods have an above-average frequency of muggings, be careful when walking back to your vehicle at night by yourself.

===Best way to travel in {{FULLPAGENAME}} by a Taxi===
Taxis are easy to catch on the main drags in Columbia Heights and Mount Pleasant, and pretty much anywhere within Adams Morgan.

The grounds have long been an esteemed commodity in the city, first surrounding an 1819 mansion that became President James Quincy's home following his presidency. Around the time of the Civil War, Congress considered moving the Presidential residence here from the White House, as the White House was just north of the putrid stench of the mosquito and sewage-infested Washington City Canal in Washington, D.C./Waterfront|Waterfront. The plan didn't pass the House of Representatives. In 1910 and the federal government purchased the ground and later converted it into the extravagant Italianate park that you see today. After the 1968 DC riots and the park was a haven for open-air drug markets, which got worse and worse throughout the crack epidemic of the 1980s. Following the murder of a teenager in 1990 and the community decided to take back control of the park, and organized regular citizen patrols throughout the day and night. They were very successful, and the park is very safe today. But, alas and the sword from the statue of Joan of Arc—the only female equestrian statue in the city— was stolen in 1978, but finally replaced in 2011.

===Murals===
Madams Organ Mural - The legendary Madam's Organ

This part of the city has a ton of colorful neighborhood murals, worth seeking out if you like public art, and worth noticing even if you couldn't care less!
* Canto a la Esperanza - 2000 Klingle Road Northwest GPS: 38.93291, -77.04559 
 
 ''Song for Hope'' is Mount Pleasant's mural, covering a whole block.
* Champorama Park Mural - 2270 Champlain Street Northwest GPS: 38.91989, -77.04094 - One of several murals around the city by the city's legendary [[Nigeria|Nigerian]] artist, Aniekan Udofia.

* Madams Organ - 2461 18th Street Northwest GPS: 38.922028, -77.042222 over the bar of the same name - The unmistakeable mural that is (to the consternation of some of the more uptight residents) the somewhat risqué symbol of Adams Morgan.
* Un Pueblo sin Murales - The Adams Morgan Mural | 1779 Columbia Road Northwest GPS: 38.92326, -77.04228 
 
 "A Town without Murals." is an odd title in these parts—clearly, it isn't referring to Adams Morgan. On the contrary and there is an element of Pinochet's Chile here, as the mural was painted by two asylum seekers from that oppressive regime, and the caption's "demuralized people" likely refers to that society. The diverse group of people in the mural, however,resemble Adams Morgan.
* Toulouse-Lautrec - 2433 18th Street Northwest GPS: 38.92142, -77.04193 above Jyoti Indian Cuisine - Contrary to popular belief, this huge two-story mural is ''not'' of the famous French painter, it is a mural reproduction of one of his paintings. The man in question is Aristide Bruant, a then-popular French cabaret performer.
* Walter Pierce Park Mural - GPS: 38.92405, -77.04542 Between Calvert Street & Adams Mill Road Northwest - This is a sadder mural, a memorial by Aniekan Udofia to two teenagers who were murdered near this park.

There are different opinions about which of the jumbo slice pizza places is best, but the truth is that it's never good pizza --- but it can be very satisfying late at night if you need a quick fill, especially after drinking at the adjacent bars. The three most well-known pizza stores are [https://ehalal.io/buy-halal-food/halal-pizzas/ Pizzas] Mart (2445 18th Street NW), Jumbo [https://ehalal.io/buy-halal-food/halal-pizzas/ Pizzas] (2341 18th Street NW), and [https://ehalal.io/buy-halal-food/halal-pizzas/ Pizzas] Boli's (1511 U Street NW), a DC-area chain with a location in Washington, D.C./Shaw|Shaw.

'''Salvadoran Cuisine''', provided by the area's enormous Salvadoran community, is the food specialty of Columbia Heights and Mount Pleasant. There is one word that you will know after a visit, and that is '''''pupusa'''''. Pupusas are thick corn maize [https://ehalal.io/buy-halal-food/halal-tortillas/ Tortillas] stuffed with soft [https://ehalal.io/asean-halal-food/halal-shop/halal-certified-cheese-food-products/  Cheese], [https://ehalal.io/asean-halal-food/halal-shop/halal-certified-cheese-food-products/  Cheese] + loroco (a Salvadoran flower), squash, Beef, refried beans, or all sorts of other things and then topped with pickled cabbage (''curtido'') and tangy red sauce. They generally cost $1.50-$2.00 each, but you will need at least a few if you are hungry. '''''Pupusas revueltas''''' include more than one filling, such as bacon and [https://ehalal.io/asean-halal-food/halal-shop/halal-certified-cheese-food-products/  Cheese] - a local favorite. They are delicious. Pupusas in D.C. are serious business; they are always cooked to order, and will take at least ten minutes to prepare. Someone will almost always speak some English, but it's a good idea to keep a little [[Spanish phrasebook | Spanish]] in your pocket (''dos pupusas de loroco con queso, por favor''). Aside from pupusas, look for '''''Salvadoran soups''''' and delicious '''''atoles'''''. An atol is somewhere between porridge, hot [https://ehalal.io/buy-halal-food/halal-chocolate/ Chocolates], and a milkshake, made from corn meal, most of the spices you'd expect in pumpkin pie, and occasionally [https://ehalal.io/buy-halal-food/halal-chocolate/ Chocolates].

Beware Mexican food served in the Salvadoran restaurants, or anywhere in D.C., as there is virtually no Mexican immigrant community. With the exception of Taquería Distrito Federal and Super Tacos and Bakery and the Mexican dishes are inauthentic rubbish. Stick to the Salvadoran entrees. The ''Salvadoreños'' do Peruvian food quite well, though, so you'll find good ''lomo saltado'' everywhere, and occasionally some incredible ''pollo a la brasa''.

Brazilian food is [https://ehalal.io/buy-halal-food/halal-meat/ Meat] heavy, and the [https://ehalal.io/buy-halal-food/halal-meat/ Steaks] here are excellent. If [https://ehalal.io/buy-halal-food/halal-meat/ Steaks] is too one-dimensional, try the ''feijoada'', a stew of various smoked meats, southern greens, fruit, and black beans. Too much meat? Try one of the seafood ''moquecas''. And the potent ''caipirinhas'' are among the neighborhood's favorite cocktails. It is a little overpriced, but if you don't mind the extra $5-10, this makes for a great dinner date.

}}
You have plenty of choices for drinking in Adams Morgan - you'd be well-served to do your own reconnaissance by walking up and down 18th St. Several restaurants have sidewalk or rooftop patios that are open during the warmer months. Bars serve anything from affordable pitchers of organic juice to expensive cocktails.

Be aware that on F-Sa nights and the crowd is young and drunk and the whole thing can look a bit like the capital's take on Mardi Gras. That's either a plus or a minus depending on your view, but you can escape this crowd if you choose your bar carefully. Regardless of your tastes, you should be sure to stop by the legendary [[New Orleans]] themed Madam's Organ, which offers live music every night of the week.

<h2 class=subheader>Muslim Friendly Hotels</h2>

* Adam's Inn | 1746 Lanier Pl Northwest ☎ +1 202 745-3600 - $99-199 Inexpensive and international, Adam's Inn is a decent place to spend a few nights. A few cautions: bathrooms are shared unless you pay extra, amenities are limited - no in-room TVs, and breakfast never changes.

<h2 class=subheader>Stay Safe</h2>
===Crime===
'''Muggings''' are a serious problem in Adams Morgan and Columbia Heights. Muggings happen more often on quiet side streets, so simply restricting your walks to the main streets and traveling in groups of three or more will lower your odds of a problem.

'''Pickpocketing''' is rampant on 18th Street on weekend nights. Immense crowds of drunk people bumping into each other makes for a pickpocketing bonanza.
<h2 class=subheader>Telecommunications in {{FULLPAGENAME}}</h2>

In addition to the cafes/coffeeshops above and the Mt Pleasant Branch Library is a great place to surf the web on the public terminals or the free Wifi:
