The Lincoln Memorial: My favourite place in the world! Martí P. (2 ESO A)

MY FAVOURITE PLACE IN THE WORLD



My favourite place in the world is The Lincoln Memorial, a US national monument built in honor of the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln.


It is located in the west end of the National Mall in Washington, DC, across the Washington Monument. The architect was Henry Bacon; the designer was Daniel Chester French, the Lincoln statue was built by the Piccirilli brothers; and the painter of the murals was Jules Guerin.



It's my favorite place because besides being from the 1930s a symbolic center of race relations, is one of the 10 most beautiful and aesthetic values of the United States of America monuments.
