Lincoln Memorial

"The Lincoln Memorial stands at the western end of the National Mall, an impressive Grecian-style temple housing the 19-foot marble statue of Abraham Lincoln, who sits with quiet dignity as if overseeing the nation he helped hold together. It's built from white Georgia marble and Colorado granite. Inscribed on the walls are some of Lincoln’s most powerful words, including the Gettysburg Address. The memorial’s steps have been a stage for pivotal moments in history, like Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech from 1963. This monument is a grand tribute to the 16th President, symbolizing his role in uniting the nation. Here, you’ll also find a sweeping view of the Reflecting Pool and the Washington Monument."

"The Lincoln Memorial sits at the very edge of the National Mall. From here you have a great view of the Capitol Building and the rest of the Mall. It's a great place for pictures!  A few things to look for while you're here:  - Martin Luther King Jr. gave his "I Have A Dream" speech here and there is an inscription that marks the spot at the top of the Lincoln Memorial - The freize at the top is inscribed with the name of 36 states in the Union at the time of Lincoln's death and the dates in which they entered the union.  - The Inscriptions inside are from Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address and his Gettysburg Address, respectively. If you're eagle-eyed you can find the typo on the north interior wall. "
