Our three-hour walking tour starts and ends at the Smithsonian Metro station and features information of the famous and not-so-famous memorials and monuments along the National Mall. The Mall encompasses a two-mile stretch of land from the Capitol Building to the Lincoln Memorial, and is filled with history, inspiration, and celebration.
