These three monuments look GREAT after dark but others are best seen during the day. If possible always sign up for a guided tour (with a live human tour guide) for the best experience! More here: youtu.be/XdpOqSAUZrE

I am making a trip to the US in september and your videos are the reason I added 4 nights in DC to the trip. This tour was actually one of the big ones on my list. Also, the thing with the red lights is an Aircraft warning light and it must be on any building over 200 feet. Interestingly this is why the buildings at the Disney Parks use forced perspective to seem taller but max out at 198 feet.

You've got us stoked and very excited , hope to see you mid February
-
Beautiful shot I'm heading there in June. I will use you for s tour

Another great video Rob, I really didn’t expect to see so many people around so late at night but as you say, the views are stunning. Although we didn’t walk around at night, we did feel very safe in D.C. with Clare also commenting that she would have no problem walking around on her own! She wouldn’t do that at home that’s for sure

Great video as always. The monuments look amazing at night, it's on our list to do when we visit in September. Facebook reminded me today that 6 years ago this weekend was my first ever trip to DC.

one time I was walking around the reflecting pool at night and it was so dark I fell into the reflecting pool - not the reflecting pool itself but this little pool between the reflecting pool and the WWII memorial. It was so dark and the water was so still I thought it was solid floor so I decided to walk across, only to find out it was water

The monuments look stunning at night. Great video as usual!
-
Thank you for the great info. I will be in DC next week.

200 ft I think is the height where structures are required to have blinking light as you put it. It’s why Cinderella’s castle is only 189 ft tall so they wouldn’t have to put a blinking light atop. Thanks for the video!
-
Just perfect and beautiful!!!!!! Thank you.
-
You are awesome!!! Thank you
-
Incredible! Thanks for this and all of your videos, Rob. I have seen quite a few of them and they have been very helpful.
-
Great video! Thank you Rob!!
-
We will be visiting in late December and will be there for New Years. Very excited as none of us have gone before. Ive binge watched most of your channel. I know DC is not a "New Years" destination, but are there events for families for New Years?
-
Thank you.
-
Wow, this is a cool video.
-
I was there at the start of August 2022. At 8am they were very few tourists, more people running.
-
Why doesn't the Park Service clean the monuments? The marble at the Lincoln Memorial looks discolors, and there seems to be debris accumulating at the wall bases. In Asia, the monuments are kept clean and bright.

Thank you after this we decided to go for night ride as well but wondering about parking so do we get free street parking at night .we are here tonight to go
