Traveling to the city, walking around, running attractions, to the Korean War Veterans (Deaths) Monument, which was built in Washington, DC in 1995 to commemorate American and United Nations soldiers killed in the Korean War. The creation of such a “Korean War Veterans (Deaths) Monument” was mentioned after the completion of the Vietnam War Memorial Wall. The US Congress authorized the US War Memorial Committee to establish such a monument to honor American citizens of both sexes who had served the country in North Korea (public law filed on October 28, 1986). President Ronald Reagan then appointed a team of advisers to the Korean War Memorial Wall to help carry out the work. In September 1988, the US War Memorial Committee approved the planned memorial wall in Washington, DC, on the southwest side of Ash Woods Lincoln Memorial. President George W. Bush laid the foundation for the memorial park on June 14, 1992. On July 27, 1995, the 42nd anniversary of the Korean Armistice Agreement, President Clinton and President Kim Yongsan of South Korea attended the unveiling. This is a building designed and managed by the "Veterans Memorial Advisory Committee of the Korean War and the American War Memorial Committee". Now, the memorial has been handed over to the National Park Service's National Mall and Historical Memorial Park Group. The monument is built in a triangular inner circle wall, about 50 meters long and about 20 cm thick, and more than 100 tons of black granite shipped from California, with more than 2,500 photographs or archival photos showing the wall in sandblasting. The circle contains a memorial pool, a 9-meter-diameter black granite shallow pool surrounded by trees, engraved with the number of dead, injured, missing and imprisoned.

Big, bold and impressive just like how I believe he would have been during his time. Like most the statutes and memorials in Dc it did not disappoint.

"I don't know the true face of the park, just because I am in this park", many tourists are enjoying the beauty of the scenery, do not know that they are stepping on the southwest of the Lincoln Memorial Potomac Park. This is because all the attractions within the park are far more famous than the park itself, with monuments to World War II, Korean War, Vietnam War, Jackson Memorial Hall, rosy cherry blossoms, quiet lake water ~ pleasant scenery, endless aftertaste.

There are not many people in the park, but it is also very beautiful. Although the spring flower season has passed when I came here, there are birds and flowers everywhere, and the plants are also very lush and a very casual place.

The area of the park is very large, it can be said to be the same as green mountains and green waters, which are particularly beautiful against the blue sky and white clouds. And it is also a very casual place, and you can also climb up and look at the city view from a distance.
