About Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool
The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is a famous and recognizable tourist attraction in Washington, D.C. It is a nice place for a walk, jog, or a relaxing stroll. The pool is approximately 618 to 620 meters long and not very deep, with a calm water surface that provides a nice reflection of the Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Monument from either side. This makes it perfect for photos, especially in the morning before sunrise or during the evening when the sky color is reflected for a beautiful and fantastical view. It is a great place to contemplate and feel the history, often appearing in movies and historical events. The area is not overly crowded, with plenty of space and no sellers, making it a must-visit spot for any tourist.

Has a nice reflection as the name implies. Seems to be about a foot deep for most of it. Do not step inside it even so, probably a crime lol. About 620m long and probably 30-40m breadth wise. Nice place for a walk/jog.
