All street parking, and they fill up fast. You're better off going to a metro station with parking garage, and metro-ing in. Alternatively, look for the adjacent neighborhoods and pay for parking there, then walk to the museum or museums of your choice. You're looking at about a mile walk or so, but contrarily you save yourself having to run in circles looking for the perfect parking spot.

Is there a metro station that you’d recommend ?

There is a Smithsonian metro stop. It's on the Blue/Orange/Silver lines.

I meant a metro station to leave the car at?

Minnesota Ave is the closest DC stop on the metro route.

Or, you could do Rhode Island Ave, which is on the red line. Switch over to B/O/S at Metro Center.

Ok thanks I’ll look into that
