Lincoln Memorial Review

It is one of the most important and valuable historical sites in the United States. It is located on the west side of the National Mall in Washington, D.C. The memorial was built to commemorate Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States, who played a key role in maintaining the unity of the country during the Civil War and freed the slaves in the United States. The design of the memorial was created to resemble the Parthenon in Athens to represent the greatness and justice that Lincoln stood for. Inside the memorial is the majestic 19-foot-tall statue of Abraham Lincoln made of marble by artist Daniel Chester French. The statue depicts Lincoln sitting in a chair with a calm and elegant posture, reflecting his endurance and strong determination. On the inner wall are carved two of Lincoln's famous speeches: "The Gettysburg Address" and "Second Inaugural Address", which are full of powerful words and reflect his ideals of promoting peace, equality and unity. The atmosphere at the Lincoln Memorial during the day and night has a different charm. During the day, visitors can see the beautiful view of the National Mall and the Reflecting Pool that stretches from the memorial to the Washington Monument. This place is also historically significant as the center of many important events, such as Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech in 1963, which was a key moment in the civil rights movement in the United States. The Lincoln Memorial is not just a memorial to commemorate important people, but also a symbol that Americans and people around the world think of when talking about freedom, equality and efforts to create a just society. Visitors will feel the power and historical meaning flowing through the structure and atmosphere of this memorial, making the visit a memorable and valuable experience. For anyone who comes to visit America, this is a must-visit place. #visitAmerica #lincolnmemorial #travelabroad #United States #Good atmosphere #Beautiful photo spots
