Probably the most beautiful monument in DC due to its design and location. Situated on the tidal basin, the Jefferson Memorial is quite picturesque. I was there in August and thought it made a beautiful picture, I can only imagine how much more inviting this location must be when the cherry blossoms are blooming. I hope to return some spring just to see this site

I really liked the Jefferson memorial mainly because of the view! From the steps, you can see the Washington monument and (i'm pretty sure)the White House- the view is the best part by far!

There is a reason that this isn't quite as famous as the Lincon Memorial. It's nice, but not as nice. There is a nice view and more stuff to look at than the others. A bit removed from the others, but certinally worth the time

Thomas Jefferson had many attributes: he was a political philosopher, architect, musician, scientist and primarily the third President of the United States.

Designed by John Russell Pope, this Roman-style monument to Thomas Jefferson, the nation's third president and author of the Declaration of Independence, is elegant and simple.
