Perched at the western end of the National Mall, the Lincoln Memorial stands as a grand tribute to Abraham Lincoln. Completed in 1922, its Greek Doric structure encloses a towering marble statue of the 16th president engraved with his famous speeches. Visitors often marvel at the Reflecting Pool views and the memorial’s significance in American history, including its role during major civil rights events. There is no admission fee, and it remains open 24 hours a day, allowing both daytime and nighttime visits. The nearby National Mall sites make it convenient to explore museums and other monuments on foot.
