Jefferson Memorial





Our night tour included a stop at the Jefferson Memorial. This is Mr Jefferson himself. He stood by himself in the middle of a large room. There were inscriptions on the walls. The one below was very interesting. I enjoyed reading what he thought of God and religion. I also believe that all should be allowed to believe what they want without fear of punishment. I also believe there is only one truth. One way to heaven.



All of this was housed in round building. It had columns on the front and a domed roof.


This is a view of it from a distance and at night. You can see the domed roof and columns. If you look closely at the blurry picture you can see Jefferson standing in the middle of the building and picture.
This one is at night also but up close and from the front.
It was beautiful.
