Wear sunscreen n walking shoes and a rear view mirror- mass people jogging and sometimes you can get jolted by the speed they run by you.
Bring a sketchbook if you like to draw. Evening is best with the sunset shining and the reflection at its brightest.
A majestic Christmas tree was illuminated during the lighting ceremony on the Ellipse in Washington D.C. on Tuesday evening! It was awesome!
Fun place with lots of joggers and tourists and sometimes a concert venue .
A beautiful place to sit and rest before walking the National Mall . Excuse the construction 😜
The sunset here is among the best in DC, wish they could finish the mall though.
Visit at the later part of the day just before and during sunsets for great reflections in the pool.
Nice waterfall in background lots of park benches to chill and absorb DC
So beautiful in the early morning. There's almost no cars and the only people out are runners and photographers .

Drained for the colder months. But lovely and gorgeous the rest of the year!
