Description
The Lincoln Memorial, near the Potomac River, presides over the west end of the National Mall in Washington, DC. At the other end of the Mall, two miles to the east, rises the U.S. Capitol. The visual axis formed by the Lincoln Memorial and U.S. Capitol creates one of the most meaningful vistas in the American landscape.
