Lincoln By Night

Anyone who has lived in Washington for even a short period of time will tell you the best time to visit the monuments is at night. The centerpiece of after-dark monumenting is the Lincoln Memorial, not only because of its beauty but also because of the view of the Washington Monument and its reflection from the steps of the Lincoln. Don’t worry about closing time, the monuments are always open.

    You’re right. Something else that has impressed me is the large size of the Lincoln sculpture.

    The monuments are beautiful at night. Now that DC is opening up again, people should take advantage and do their own 30 Plus Teams Tour of DC, even those who live there.
