About to visit USA? Try travelling to this DC monument (8)
I believe the answer is:
treasury
'this dc monument' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'about to visit usa? try travelling' is the wordplay.
'about' becomes 're' (common abbreviation for 'with reference to').
'to visit' is an insertion indicator.
'travelling' indicates an anagram.
'usa'+'try'='usatry'
'usatry' is an anagram of 'tasury'.
're' placed into 'tasury' is 'TREASURY'.
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for treasury that I've seen before include "Government department in charge of finances" , "British government department managing finances" , "Finance ministry" , "Government finance department" , "Place where great valuables are stored" .)
