At one end of the pond of reflection, echoing the Lincoln Memorial, and the Veterans Memorial, the Vietnam War Memorial, constitute a war memorial. There are half a circle of granite stone monuments lined up at a time, like a wreath.
Washington's three war memorials, this World War II Memorial Square is also the largest in the scope, World War II monument can also see many bad architectural projects, the monument is also an annual commemoration event.
The service of the little brother who brought the game is super good, and will seriously introduce us to the specific play strategy, the experience is excellent
The environment is clean and tidy, and it is a place worth visiting.
The National WWII Memorial, next to the Reflecting Pool, is situated between the Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Monument, as the name implies, in memory of the American soldiers during World War II. There are pools and fountains in the center, and pillars around them bear the names of every state or overseas territory in the United States during World War II. When it comes to World War II, one can not help thinking that Japan would not have surrendered so quickly without the atomic bombs dropped by the United States in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I don't know what it would be like for Japanese people to visit this monument.
Friends, rest assured! The people here are wrong, and the traffic is very convenient, everyone can come and experience!
