Large crowds are predicted to flock to see Barack Obama sworn in as US president on 20 January. Are you planning to go?
City officials are preparing for large numbers to descend on Washington but estimates that as many as five million people will arrive for the ceremony have been dismissed.
City Administrator Dan Tangherlini told America's National Public Radio that the district does not know the exact number of people who will attend, "so what we have to do is be prepared for the highest-end estimates".
Around 240,000 tickets for the ceremony are to be handed out to the public for free by members of Congress.
