The Vietnam Veterans Memorial on the National Mall pays tribute to the brave members of the U.S. Armed Forces who fought in the Vietnam War and were killed or missing in action. The Wall at the memorial is one of the most powerful scenes and is actually made up of two identical walls that each stretch 246 feet and 9 inches, containing more than 58,000 names. : @lihanphotography #MyDCcool
Framed here by flowers, the US Capitol anchors the eastern end of the National Mall. It’s one of the most recognizable buildings in the world and the center of American democracy. Public tours of the US Capitol are free and open to anyone who makes an advanced reservation through your US representative or senator. : @aquinsta #MyDCcool

Collectively called the Smithsonian Institution, the world-renowned museum and research complex consists of 17 museums and galleries in Washington, DC, including the National Zoo. At the center of it all is the Smithsonian Institution Building, better known as "The Castle". The vital information point makes for a perfect meet-up spot, and its America’s Treasure Chest exhibit inspires all with a sneak peek at the types of artifacts displayed in all of the museums. : @nicoles_eye_view #MyDCcool
