1001 Places/Experiences to See or Savour #131 - Lincoln Memorial

1001 Places/Experiences to See or Savour After Remission #131

- Lincoln Memorial, Washington DC

 (As memorials go, this Lincoln Memorial is probably the most widely known and pictured, because of all the Hollywood movies that have captured it in some way. But this city of Washington is full of memorials including the Jefferson Memorial, the Vietnam War Memorial and the Korean War Memorial. Then there's the Washington Monument - the area between it and the Lincoln Memorial hosted the million-man-march led by Martin Luther King in the 60's, who gave us the iconic words, "I have a dream.." What a powerful and inspirational set of words indeed)
