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.

Grest view of the Washington monument from the a Lincoln Memorial regardless, but I was really looking forward to the reflection pond having... you know... a reflection.
Upkeep is important still so although I was disappointed, I still had a great time!
