National Mall & Memorial Parks

National Mall & Memorial Parks

Where are they?: – Washington D.C., DC

National Mall & Memorial Parks were officially established back in 1965 to protect much of the parkland which was already in the system, as it were. National Mall & Memorial Parks are a group of parks and places of interest where people can visit to honor the sacrifice and courage of war veterans, commemorate presidential legacies and generally get all patriotic and celebrate the commitment of the US to freedom and equality. These important memorial sites include:

George Mason Memorial
Constitution Gardens
Old Post Office Tower
John Ericsson Memorial
Pennsylvania Ave National Historic Site

as well as many icons

Lincoln Memorial
Washington Monument
Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial
Thomas Jefferson Memorial
Korean War Veterans Memorial
World War II Memorial
Vietnam Veterans Memorial

I know, it’s a bit of a whistle stop video but you get the general idea.

That was a bit of a more leisurely pace wasn’t it?
