Ulysses S. Grant Memorial

This memorial is built to have a great view of the Capitol building on one side and wahington monument on the other. A serene pool on the steps offers some relflcetion time for adults and running around time for kids.

A very cool historic monument, with nice views of both the Capitol and the reflection pond.

Beautifull US Capitol view. Many tourists here, runners. Dog friendly. Nice architecture, beautiful big trees. National Mall. Must visit spot in Washington D.C. Plenty of museums at the left n right side of National Mall

Epic monument right in front of the Capitol. Great setting with the Capitol in the background and a reflecting pool and the Washinton Monument behind. A must-see while in DC visiting all the amazing museums, historical sites, and vistas. Looks great even on a hot and humid July day.

We came here from Vietnam and after passing through California. With a Spirit flight of more than 5 hours, a Marc train, after landing in Baltimore, we were immediately at Washington Union Station, a first-class train station with its majestic antiquity and vastness. In front of Washington Union Station is the Capital building, the heart of America. We could have used the city bus with sightseeing tours, but we decided to walk. I could have walked very difficult but it became easy with the wheelchair that my wife helped. After exploring the Capitol house, we arrived at this place. The grandeur and perspectives in a large complex with parks, government buildings, museums, and monuments were unbelievable. The monuments were impressive, authentic, and intensely inspiring. They honor history and create a breakthrough, and pride, showing the bravery and desire to win in the nation's struggles. Impressively, all our tours are completely free. Thank you to the heart of America, and thank you to our predecessors for your thoughtful enthusiasm and for spreading the community with dedication and gratitude.
