The National Mall connects most of the capital's major buildings: the Capitol on the east side, the White House on the north center, and the Abraham Lincoln Memorial on the west. In between there are countless memorials (Vietnam Veterans, Korean War, the Second World War, ...) as well as museums that are mostly free of charge (natural history, art history, Museum of Afro-Americans, Aviation Museum, ...)

Great walk in our beautiful capital to remember the foundations of our democracy before the apprentice takes over the White House ...

The mall is of course longer than the small section shown here.
