Stay at Rendale for the good vibes, but if you like your evil supersized, you can also catch an unusual sighting of none other than Darth Vader. Top tip: bring your binoculars. You’ll find the Dark Lord a long way up, as a gargoyle on top of the National Cathedral. The northwest tower, to be precise. (They built him on the dark side, we kid you not.)
