Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool

Go at night. Less of a crowd.

Reflect here at the newly renovated pool.

RELAXING, AND HAVING FUN TIME BY THE POOL SIDE

Very serene. They haven't had a chance to clean it yet though as of June...

Absolutely stunning scenery

La piscina esta casi siempre vacía.

It's stunning how big this is and really makes you stop and think.

Currently completely drained right now :(

I love this place. It is always crowded.

Beautiful to walk along.. must walk the whole mall end to end!

Great place to bike to! Lots of history surrounds this spot. Accessible to Capital Bikeshare station. Also, within biking distance of Arlington, which is right across the bridge.

Beautiful!

Havuz dikili tas manzarasi guzel

Легендаоное место. Маст хев

Amazing at night!

7,000 tourists re-enacting scenes from Forrest Gump.

If you're walking by at night in the summer, WEAR BUG SPRAY. Hundreds of thousands of mosquitos call this stagnant pool of water home.

Try not to come here if it's under renovation.

Great place to sit and soak it all in

Cheio de bosta ao redor da piscina.

Meet Jenny in the middle of the water.

While you may not be able to take a dip in this pool on a hot day, you still need to protect your eyes & skin from the sun & reflection. Water reflects up to 100% of UV, so sunnies are essential!

The pool leads to the Lincoln memorial so those searching for directions u won't get lost. And along the way there are benches to have a sit and take a breather.

Drained a bit for repairs

Doesn't reflect much at the moment :/

Definitely need to visit this memorial if you ever get the chance. Inside scoop: Looks even more amazing at night!

Lots of bugs!

So beautiful and peaceful at 0300 in the morning

Beautiful place and overall an amazing collection of memorials all close together, but the actual water here is pretty filthy and definitely needs to be taken care of better.

Check out the view from the backside of the Memorial

Clemson sucks

Just think of all the amazing things that have happened here in the past

"That all I got to say about that!" Forest Gump

Think! Be a part of history!

Shallow! And a lot longer than you would think! Try not to walk against the wind.

Stand in front of Lincoln where Martin Luther King stood to get a great view of the past, present, and future of this country.

The pool, measuring some 2,000 feet long, was built soon after the 1922 dedication of the Lincoln Memorial; both were designed by architect Henry Bacon.

nice and peaceful

58 steps so be prepared
