The two natural destinations coming from Kensington, aside from heading back into Washington, D.C., are the dining and nightlife scenes in Silver Spring and Bethesda.
Silver Spring — easy to get to by car via the Beltway to the Georgia Ave exit or bus 5
Bethesda — easy to get to by car via Wisconsin Ave south, or by bus 5 to the White Flint metro station and then south on the Red Line to the Bethesda stop
