   The Jefferson memorial is located across the tidal basin from the western end of the Mall and adds picturesque charm to the views from many locations.

4. White House
   The official residence of the President of the United States is located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, two blocks north of the Mall near the Washington Monument. It is best viewed from the Ellipse, a large open field behind the White House, or from Lafayette Park in front of the building.
5. Supreme Court
   The Supreme Court Building is located at 1st and East Capitol Sts., NE. The Supreme Court Building, constructed between 1932--1935, was designed by noted architect Cass Gilbert.
6. Washington Memorial
   The Washington Monument is the most prominent feature of the DC skyline. It is the 555-foot high, white-marble obelisk at the top of a slight rise in the center of the Mall. It is best viewed from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial at the western end of the Mall where an inverted image appears in the large reflecting pool.
7. The Smithsonian Institution
   The Smithsonian Institution, composed of 14 separate facilities scattered about Washington DC, is one of the finest collections of museums in the world. Nine of the museums are located on The Mall between the Capitol Building and the Washington Monument.

   The National Air and Space Museum is nearly everyone's favorite. It displays many original historic aircraft and spacecraft as well as full scale models of a Lunar Lander, a Spacelab, numerous rockets and aircraft.
9. Union Station
   Union Station, completed in 1907, has been appropriately described as a "great and impressive gateway" to the Nation's Capital. Recently remodeled into a luxury mall and tourist stop consisting of more than 100 stores and a huge eatery offering dishes from pizza to sushi, it is considered to be one of the most beautiful railroad terminals in the world.
10. John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts
    Beautifully situated along the Potomac River is the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, a living memorial to President Kennedy who took an active interest in the performing arts.
11. Arlington House, The Robert E. Lee Memorial
    The glorious view from the front of the Robert E. Lee Memorial caused President Kennedy, in one of his visits, to exclaim, "I could stay here forever!" And the Kennedy family who had chosen two other burial sights in Arlington Cemetery, when told of his remark, immediately, designated President Kennedy's final resting place to be the base of the hill which Arlington House sits upon.
