I loved seeing the Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, and the Veterans memorial on the National mall. With mobility issues, the scooters everywhere to rent made the whole experience infinitely better. I hadnt been there since age 13. Brought my adult son this time who moved there before COVID hit and hadnt done any sight seeing. Everyone was masked this visit and staying away from others. It was a great visit.

Stunningly beautiful place, and some of our countrys most remarkable landmarks. Everyone should take a trip and visit. If you have kids take them its worth it. Just make sure youre wearing some good footwear, its a lot of walking thats all worthwhile. It was so beautiful during the day had to go back and see it all lit up during the night priceless. Ill highly recommend taking the trip for more than one day, its a lot to see, so if you can stay in a hotel it will be perfect you can see in during the day, and during the night.

Must see for all Americans. Timeless and priceless piece of history that looks more amazing than any TV show or movie could portray. Nighttime is my recommendation as everything is very visible and less crowded than the daytime. Very quiet peaceful and serene, great place to think and bond with loved ones, friends or family. A lot of people jogging, skating and riding scooters so keep your eyes open. All pathways are well paved and lit, but there are a lot of stairs leading up to the Lincoln Memorial. Parking is free after 8 pm on the surrounding streets. Heavily patrolled by cops and security, but not a lot of mask wearing by visitors due to being outside.

We spent the entire day taking in all the rich, historical sites the national mall offers. It is a LARGE area to cover so be ready with proper footware. I would definitely visit again!

The national mall in dc is a clearly one of the hottest tourist spots. It is where you will find a majority of the Smithsonian museums, the capitol building any of course the monuments. But wear your waking shoes because it is two miles long and features trails, ponds and food trucks everywhere.

One of the best places I’ve been to. The National Mall is a beautiful park that reflects the pride of the USA. My friend and I took a scooter so that we could see everything. My favorite stop on the mall was the Lincoln Memorial and the Martin Luther King Jr Memorial. This place is very awe-inspiring and I would go again.

So beautiful! We went up to the Washington monument and touched it! We looked around and saw the Lincoln memorial, the white house, and the capital! We went into the big pencils shadow, and we took some AWESOME pictures! Ill show you one.

Very well layed out. The grounds are easy to navigate and kept very clean. I recommend using bikes or the scooters to get around. Its a neat option for viewing all the monuments.

DISABLED PEOPLE, READ THIS Outstanding! See it at night for the best view! We took a tour with Nonpartisan Pedicab. Our guide, Read did an amazing job.I am disabled due to rheumatoid arthritis and cannot walk long distances, so this was perfect! He took us up close to each location we wanted to see. I really only thought I was going to be seeing these places driving by real quick in a car. This tour made our whole trip!

The Smithsonian African-American Museum is absolutely marvelous. It is fabulous. Its more than I even imagined. It is breath taking. Pictures dont justify. It is a must experience.

What is the intention of the Lincoln & Washington memorials? The surroundings provide for recreation & socializing. Its not so much beautiful as it is structured & orderly. I love living in America but i wonder about the intentions. Dont you?

Highly recommend spending at least an entire day in DC to see & do all of the monuments and memorials. Youll want 2 days if you plan on going to museums. Unfortunately, ALL of the museums were shut down due to covid during our trip. Traveling during a pandemic is interesting; there were hardly any people at the national mall. We were the only 2 people at the vietnam memorial (see pic). Youll want to bring plenty of your own water and snacks. For bottled water it was at least $3 near the national mall. Bring plenty of sunscreen as well. You dont need a tour bus! Save $ and get healthy! I highly recommend renting or bringing your own bicycle or scooter. It is much easier to get around on those. We biked 10 miles in one day seeing all the popular memorials/monuments. But if youre not used to it, walking 10 miles might be difficult.

It is very Historic and has the welcoming feeling of Love. I enjoyed the Historic March, meeting new people, and feeling the Spirit of the Late.. Great.. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. as he gave his famous I have a Dream speech there 57 years ago.. The National Mall is Beautiful!

Cant beat it! This is the place if you want classic Americana in the Capitol. The National Mall is a great place for a walk this time of year. In spite of the virus, there were plenty of people out enjoying the sun and the moderate temps. We saw a number of the monuments, which were inspiring as always, and had a great afternoon. Finding parking can be tricky, but if you download the Parkmobile app, you can easily pay for street parking. The whole mall is walkable, and you can spend as much or as little time as you like exploring out just hanging out. Enjoy!

Its too good for the politicians. It should be made into a museum and all federal government work should be done it different installations across the country.

I try to never pass up a chance to visit DC. And while there, the National Mall is a place I thoroughly enjoy spending time.

Iconic Washington DC sights and views in this area. Highly suggest checking out the National Mall during the Spring-Fall months for beautiful views of all the memorials and buildings. Take a moment for sure to breathe it all in.

Breathtaking! I wanted to keep seeing but due to the Pandemic is not possible to enjoy it to the fullest! So rich in history! And to see the name of Puerto Rico in the World War 2 monument makes me even prouder to be born on that beautiful island!!

An amazing walk or ride! Such history, all in one place! I would highly recommend taking one day to ride scooters or bikes to get an overview of the area and plan the next few days. This really does deserve several days, or multiple trips.

When you notice more cops around than usual and then the street start to close down. Get ready for something big to happen. Glad I enjoyed a relaxing time in the park and was able to get to the the motorcade go by. Also being able to see the White House in the distance and all the other historical sites is very relaxing even on a busy day.

First time in this historic city. So humbling to visit the birthplace of our country.

My 2 favorite monuments are the Lincoln Memorial for its majestic, patriotic, and symbolic factors with exceptional craftsmanship. President Lincoln looks like hes looking right at you and ready to speak again.and the Korean War monument-- what a masterfully creative field of unique, real life depiction of these brave soldiers! Its beyond amazing when viewed at night... just like theyre trudging through swamp fields!

We stopped in town for a wedding and took some time to do some quick sightseeing at the mall. Everything is very well maintained and we appreciated seeing the dedication given at each monument. Highly recommend you take a some time to reflect and enjoy this massive area. Make sure you wear walking shoes!

Amazing fast food. Being from Colo, they have done a good job bringing real NM hatch chile here. The prices are very affordable and the outdoor ordering seems safe enough.

I love the Mall. Theres always something going on and its good to see the food trucks out there. Only thing Id change is Id like to see some places to use the rest room but other than that, its a big outdoor space good for a stroll.

Ive been here before, but this time was so much more important and meaningful. The volume of people partnering together for a cause was absolutely electric. Every race/ethnicity and age group was represented!

Beautiful and serene. Helpful to have so many food options from the food trucks.

Fantastic views of nations most historic landmarks!

One of my favourite places to go to. Historical place and nice to hangout with the family. Very clean place and secure. Most visitors fallow social distancing and masked.

The National Mall and Downtown D.C. is a place that must be experienced in person. Everything is larger than life. Of course, during Covid times, it was a little disappointing that most venues were closed. The White House is difficult to see as well due to the extra barriers theyve put up. Still well worth a stroll.

A must do experience. Bring friends, family and pets. A fantastic way to be outdoors and pay respect to some of our nations greatest memorials.

Listen here. This is one of those places you just have to see in real life. So much history and great detail. Plus my son got a kick out of seeing where they filmed Captain America. On your left LOL but seriously if you get a chance to, come see this in person it will blow you away

Wonderful for massive, peaceful gatherings. Nice green grounds to just relax with the family and pets. Nice place for concerts. Exciting to behold a location where vital and transformative American history has occurred. Its in walking distance to a variety of thought-provoking historical museums, monuments, and our nations Capitol. Its also a great place for walking, jogging, and doing various other forms of exercise. I hope to visit again soon.

The National Mall is a great unification location. It represents the best place for all people. It represents life and liberty. My first march was the March on Washington with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., John R. Lewis, Dorothy Irene Height and a million others protesting. I was just turning 13 years old. Greatness impacted my life on that day! This is sacret ground from the Lincoln Memorial to the Department of Justice. We come to honor our dead and fallen soldiers. We come to raise our voices for freedom and justice. It is my honor, privilege and right to come to the big and small meetings when called. Continue the COMMITMENT! Continue to protest and let your voices be heard! VOTE!

Took a spin scooter rental for a spin, was completely alone at the ww2 memorial, also rode my scooter and recreated John Wilkes Booth’s escape route, I even broke my leg before getting on the scooter to add realism. Here I am at the back alley doorway that he ran out of the theater to his scooter rental he had waiting.

I went and it was great. Everyone should go at least once in their lives. I didnt see Forrest Gump or Jenny there like in the movie but I ALSO didnt get into a fight in the middle of a Blank Panther party either....

Great walk from us capitol to washington memorial. Though i do wish masking was taking place and there were more signs for ppl to wear masks at all times. Esp at the praying tent with all due respect.

Very awe inspiring. Just a wonderful experience. Visited during the night and thats a great time to do so. Not crowded and the photos turn out great

Of course you’ve seen it probably thousands of times in your history books, magazines, tv shows and movies. Seeing it in person is a bit surreal. History was made here and that history is impossible not to think about while you’re standing here. A good place to go for a walk or jog, it just doesn’t get boring. The best times to go is before 10am, when there’s no crowd at all.

Went there for stopthesteal rally. Though it was evident the mayor and her forces did not want us there. Huge group made it worth it, so much love and determination. Only hate came from small group dressed in all black with umbrellas. Food trucks there were excellent. Very little restrooms I guess due to covid

Beautiful green. Open . Social distance practices . Enjoyed the walks.

Had only a couple days, and the main monuments at the National Mall were high on the list. The memorials to those who fought and died in Vietnam, Korea and WWII were moving. Loved seeing the White House and the Capital Building from the Washington Monument. Paid homage at the Lincoln Memorial and the Martin Luther King Jr Memorial. So glad I was able to go and experience a slice of history.

I have always loved going to the national Mall and loved being back again after so long. It is an amazing place to visit at night and the monuments are just as alive in the evening as they are in the day

On Saturday November 7, 2020, I went to Catharsis on the Mall for healing and to hang out with my friends. We were still celebrating the victory of Initiative 81. It was a beautiful day.

Half of Americans will visit this place in their lifetime! Beautiful park! Thank you George Washington!

From the Washington Monument to the WWII Memorial and all the way to the Lincoln Monument, this place is amazing.

Always amazing seeing the memorials. Next time im renting a scooter and wearing mroe comfortable shoes. You sure get your steps in.

You can walk all day and night and still not see everything there is to see. There is such a wealth of history and art in close proximity.

The Lincoln memorial in my humble opinion is a sacred shrine, and Should be cherished by all. The most Godly President this country has ever had.

Best place in DC for photography, walk, biking. History of country depicted in form of architecture. loved the entire atmosphere . Good restaurants and museums nearby. If you are visiting DC then must visit this one.

Simply put this is a must visit if you are in the DC area. Such an iconic monument as well as the Abraham Lincoln monument. Also the place where they do the inauguration its very iconic to America

It was pretty good, but like most american malls these days I couldnt find very many open shops.

Took a walk to visit old Abe around 4am. It was super peaceful and you could feel the history of this place weighing on you. Getting to walk around here alone was a truly humbling experience.

Beautiful and clean. Wide open surrounded by natural monuments. The Park service was there to answer any questions. Very nice. The police were on duty as well making sure we were protected.

Memorials inscribed of name of soldiers who survived and who has fallen. Beautiful and serene atmosphere. For those who love history its a sad and beautiful experience. Most memorials have been restored or are fairly new. Parking is available but you must walk to the memorials. Some memorials have steps and are not wheelchair accessible. During my visit I officiated a Wedding(you can visit my website by tapping the link below) and I saw people jogging, sightseeing, riding scooters and playing Frisbee. I also saw police officers on horses strolling pass. Streets are busy with thorough traffic but please do not hold up a lane to sightsee. Just park and go! Usually busy however due to the pandemic its not packed.

Best place for jogging, walking your dog, biking or have a picnic with your families or friends. Variety of fast food options.

I love it at the mall its me favorite place to be I love shopping there but its kind of expensive stuff so much fun there you can get Jamba juice so much fun me and my mom go shopping there sometimes and my grandma and my papa and me go there all the time when I come over on the weekends and and so we just have a good time

The most important place to visit in Washington DC and get connected with the history of the nation. It is a one time must visit place for every American. I really enjoyed being there.

Clean, beautiful, and informative. The kids enjoyed it also.

Monuments are all centrally located along with the Capitol building, Supreme Court, White House a few blocks away, Senate building .... It is also surrounded by countless federal offices, Smithsonian, and many other sites. Excellent place to visit for a few days.

It was amazing to visit without the crowds. Sad that President trump would let me inform him that he got the full 2020 experience.1. Got the Rona2. Lost his job3. Got evicted4. His stimulus check shrank!He wouldnt let anyone even close to the Capitol.

It was a very pleasant sunny day! The whole area is beautifully landscaped and clean. A good place to enjoy walking around and see all the buildings and historic museums,sculptures of heroic heroes,icons and more.

Wonderful to view my hometown...sometimes we take home for granted. Looking forward to obtaining tickets to get a deeper look.

Prayer March 2020. It was wonderful to see so many Christians praying for our country and the world. Put your trust in Jesus .ask Him to forgive you and come into your life. Then your journey begins. Read the Bible start with the book of john

Beautiful area! Not many people on a Wednesday evening! Highly recommend going at sunset, it is beautiful!!

It always get recharged with patriotism while visiting the National Mall

I love the national mall. It is so great. All the memorials and monuments are spectacular and from a few places you can see the White House. If you can see all of the memorials and monuments they are beautiful. It is also an enjoyable place to walk. I highly recommend going up to the top of the Washington Monument.

Always a great time. The mall is well maintained and enjoyable to walk through a bit of history.

Beautiful place but covid has a lot of stuff blocked off

Great way to spend a day in DC, especially with the museums being closed right now. Bring your walking shoes and dont go in the summer if you dont like the heat. There isnt much shade here. Also, the rental scooters will shut off in this area because it is restricted.

The Korean War memorial is my favorite. Visiting it is such an emotional experience. The strength and anguish is palpable. I recommend going at night or when it is snowing to evoke the maximum emotional experience. It is absolutely stunning.

Walked 4 1/2 miles R/T from Washington Monument to Capitol and back. Loved the people and sites. Will return soon.

7AM Sunrise at the steps of the Lincoln Monument. Sunrise and midnight are the two absolute best times to visit and relax on those famous steps!

This is an extraordinary sight to see, it has so many aspects of both history. Pacing your visit is something that is a must. All of the different Memorials and monuments takes more time than a day. Youll also want a map to see all of it. And bring your walking shoes, or be prepared to rent a scooter or bike. You can easily walk eight miles. Food Trucks are also parked along the route to the White House in case you want something.

An interesting place full of people shouting one belief or another. Definitely a place to go where you can see things youve never seen before.

Love DC. Malls area is actually the only place I fell safe in DC from 14 st nw to George Town. And to Adams Morgan. Outside those areas it is not safe

Its the national mall, lots of walking and it gets hot and sunny during the spring summer and into fall. Be prepared with good walking shoes and water. Museums and monuments are free, bathrooms will be in the museums which have security checkpoints to go through and under the lincoln memorial and inside the jefferson memorial which is on an island you walk (or bike/scoot) to. Lots to see, also great at night and much less people to navigate around.

Had a great workout at our Nations Capi6.

My wife, daughter and I love the National Mall area. We always see plenty of families with small children. The atmosphere is very uplifting. I recommend parking along Jefferson Street around the Dillon Ripley Center, if parking is available. The paid metered parking is well worth it.

Something everyone should see.Our nations Capital, the Supreme Court, the President driving by.

Went on labor day. It was beautiful! Not crowded at all.

I love the national mall. We used to live near here and spent a lot of weekends visiting the museums, monuments, and memorials. Nearly everything is free. Great place to appreciate and honor the sacrifices so many have made for our country.

This is one of the most beautiful places Ive been, is full of history and just a great place to visit.

Great place to take a stroll even if you have seen the various monuments before.

Very cool it is full of history and make you feel special.

Go visit it’s so beautiful there’s so much to see

Great place for a bike ride on a beautiful Fall day. Lots of monuments, memorials, and museums to see.

It was awesome. My sister, brother-in-law and I rode scooters all over the Mall, checked out some of the monuments Ive never seen (the WW II memorial for one), and the place was all but deserted.

Fabulous spot to visit. An incredible portrayal of American History just as astonishing design and figure. Additionally extraordinary yard space for an image. Park seats and neighborhood sustenance just as nourishment trucks. Can lease bicycles and bikes to rapidly get around. Historical centers are free and furthermore astounding. Exceptionally suggested.

I enjoyed my visit to Washington D.C. the monument was much larger than I expected. Although the area was busy, we found a parking spot across from the monument and behind us was the White House. Now it was smaller than I had imagined. Surprisingly.

Pretty cool place to visit in your travels

It’s no wonder it’s one of America’s treasures. Truly blessed to live near the national monuments and have the privilege to exercise or leisure around here

Had a great one-day road trip to visit. A must see

Always a great place to walk or people watch. Ive also taken a blanket to relax and read. One of my favorite places!

Washington Prayer March 2020 with Franklin Graham...phenomenal. Gods blessings shined down

Very worthwhile visit and experience. Words cant possibly describe everything.

Always will love this place. It is so breath taking. To stand there where important events and people have been. WOW just imagine.

The view of the Washington monument is amazing when you see the reflection from the Lincoln memorial.

Iconic, American history, beautiful grounds to Enjoy, easy access from Metro rail. Take a day plus to really walk the grounds to see Our Countrys history.

Extraordinary and rare day in November to enjoy the National Mall. In shorts and be pleasantly warm
