National Museum of the American Indian

ArtHistoryClosed · Opens 10amFreeL'Enfant Plaza (Metro)

作為全美首座完全致力呈現原住民族群文化與歷史的國家級博物館,Smithsonian 旗下的 National Museum of the American Indian 於 2004 年正式揭幕。這座樓高五層的建築由 Douglas Cardinal(Blackfoot)操刀設計,精選 Kasota 石灰岩構築,外觀宛如歷經風雨與水流長年沖刷雕琢而成。館內各大展覽皆與原住民社群攜手籌劃,並以其視角出發,藏品多達約 80 萬件,完整涵蓋整個美洲大陸。展覽焦點包括探討條約歷史的《Nation to Nation》、直面大眾文化中原住民意象的《Americans》,以及設於戶外的 National Native American Veterans Memorial。館內的 Mitsitam Native Foods Cafe 提供風味純正的原住民傳統地道佳餚,本身亦是極具吸引力的美食勝地。
