Washington, D.C. has its fair share of iconic American monuments. But if you’re to see any one of them during a visit, head to the Thomas Jefferson Memorial—its stately domed marble roof and commanding columns are instantly recognizable, while its graceful steps overlooking the Potomac make for a lovely lunch or resting spot. As author of the Declaration of Independence, our third president, and a visionary founding father, Jefferson and his memorial are icons of the American spirit.
