This iconic symbol of the U.S. government is one of the many historic sites we’ll visit in Washington, D.C.
The Lincoln Memorial, the Washington Monument, and the U.S. Capitol building anchor the National Mall, a roughly two-mile section of museums and monuments that draws 25 million visitors annually. More six million of those come to the memorial to President Abraham Lincoln. We’ll have plenty of time to explore other sites on the National Mall, including the Smithsonian Institute’s “Castle”, the National Gallery of Art, and the National Museum of Natural History.
