From 1961 to 1992, all 535 members of Congress had bunk beds, a 400-seat cafeteria and incinerator-crematorium 720 feet under the Greenbrier resort — code-named Project Greek Island. Declassified in '92 by the Washington Post; now a 90-minute private tour. No phones, no cameras allowed below ground. Pair with the Old White golf course and resort's casino floor. Decompression: dinner in Main Dining Room with the dress code, then a nightcap at the Twentieth Century Club bar.
