Excellent place to visit! You just have to come and enjoy the Wisdom heroes. Please check Pictures for amenities.

Always great to see the National Monument on person. Currently they are done repairing the facade, but the obelisk is still not open as they are repairing/ renovating the interior of the monument. Am told that the view from the monument is spectacular. It is located at one end of the Mall near the new African American Museum.

Beautiful! Check out the gift shop as well. Its currently under construction but will be open in August of 2019. You can still walk around it and on the lawn.

Lovely Obelisk monument to a great universal personality & founding father of United States of America

Only been up once but very enjoyable. Strict security, and informative staff. Great views as you would expect. Just enough history and background to read so its not overwhelming. I get the impression the inside of it was designed so you dont spend too much time up there.

You can really feel the history here. When the weather is good you can see all the way across the mall. It is something truly special. And its free

As youre walking through the National Mall and arrive at the Washington Monument all tired from all the walking - Drop down on the green. Good place to rest. Take in your surroundings and the experiences youve had. All the while remaining in full view of the Washington Monument!

Great place to visit atleast once in lifetime.

The experience was great. Go if you have the chance. They will.let you know.when peak.season is. Take advantage of it.

Incredible views. This night, you had the 50th anniversary of the moon landing. It was special that they projected a video onto the Monument.

So much to see here!Take the time to walk around and especially walk to the other side of the Potomac.If you have a map on your phone, follow the route around the whole mall.Well worth your time to get different perspectives of all the different monuments and memorials here!

Beautiful open space filled with historical monuments. Great for walking around taking in the sights.

Incredible, feel very Patriotic here

Clean not crowded a very good walk

Wonderful place. Recommend to all.

Is so good visittin that plac3

Center of National Mall.. This is one of the top ten monuments in Washington. Amazing that it was all built with bricks and very interesting to see the color change caused by the halt in work before completion. This can be viewed from so many places but the best view is to walk down the wide mall.

Its definitely a pretty nice view

Nice place, day and night.

Lovely memorial visually and emotionally

It was a great experince enjoy the walk in the Washington Mall

Beautiful monument with great views

Great place to visit, even while areas are under construction. An absolute must for everyone! Grounds are magnificent, and the view from the monument is spectacular! 5 stars++++ without a doubt!!

Stopped by to see the kite flying competition and the cherry blossoms. Insane crowds, but everyone was nice and we got to see everything!Always take mass transit to the mall, wear comfy walking shoes or sneakers, bring a bottle of water, sunscreen, and a hat. You will have wonderful time!

Beautiful grounds. Wish we would have known it was under construction.. there was nothing online we found that said it.

Well when we were there the monument itself was closed but it is open now. The grounds are very nice and the shop has quite a bit of stuff

The Washington Monument is re-open after almost 4 years of maintenance. What a view of DC from top of the monument. And remember that the whole structure is held together by sheer gravity; no steel or cement reenforcement at all! All 555 feet tall!

Plenty of space to walk around and a picturesque place to be.

United states of Americas heart

Neat green space that appears reasonably well maintained. Theres not much within the immediate vicinity to protect you from the elements, so come prepared - bundle up, bring an umbrella, put on sunscreen - whatever the weather calls for. The nearest public restrooms are about a 10-minute walk from the base of the monument.

Beautiful, well maintained area.

Great place to have picnic and take a walk.

Huge grassy area that you can watch Marine One fly around with El Presidente while eating your 14 dollar churro you got from one of the taco trucks.

Visited twice. Awesome to see at night. Highly recommend.

Loved the salute to America on the 4th. Would go every few years if the flyovers were bigger and other military stuff was also in the praide.

It reminds you of where we first began as a country. Always remember our ancestors.

Cool place

Great place to walk.

Best place to take pictures, has the reflection pool, white house,etc. nearby

Beautiful.

The kite festival was crazy and fun! So many people, so many kites, so many kids!

It was closed but still beautiful

It is what it says, lots of museums, lots of monuments, it needs more time to take everything in than the few hours we had. If youre into museums then this would be museum heaven and the Smithsonian ones are free! Be prepared for bag and security screening.

Great expansive lawn to hang out or explore around the monuments.

The whole area is amazing

Great for walking. Well maintained

I alway love visiting but the traffic to get here is awful.

The cherry blossoms were really pretty

Even though the monumentWas closed for renovations, it was still beautiful to see.

Notice the discoloration about 2/5ths up the monument? Thats how high the Biblical Flood waters got! Its amazing the structure was able to survive Gods wrath.

Make sure to arrive early in the morning to get the walk up tickets.

I get alot of my Motivation from many people in this area. I have talked to some great interesting people that have visited me and shared so much information at the Washington Monument grounds. Integrity is what makes this great country endure. There are alot of people that are doing the right thing when no one is looking.

Great for walk!!

It was a beautiful experience. The tour bus was driver was the best!

Lots of great history in and around the grounds. Great green space!

Not open

Wish it were open so we could go up inside, maybe next time

Beautiful area, great for walking. So much history everywhere.

Great place to visit and spend time. But a lot of the space has soil with gravel and small pebbles and when it rained was not uncomfortable especially for elder people

The queue line was just too long, visit early so not to wait on line.

It’s grass that is in front of the Washington Monument

Always inspiring!

Awesome to see history.

Great place to bring the entire family! Outstanding views everywhere you look. Bring your camera!

Nice open area with great views of the monuments.
