This is a beautiful memorial dedicated to the Korean War. My favorite section of the memorial is the engraved quotation "Freedom Is Not Free".

If you get the chance to visit this one really early or right at dusk it leaves quite an impression. If you get lucky and see it when there is some fog hanging around you can get a real feeling of what the soldiers must have seen and felt.

Such a beautiful tribute to our Korean War Vets. Really enjoyed the larger-than-life, realistic statues. Was only disappointed when we visited at night. I thought they would be more lit up and would appear more dramatic, but I actually enjoyed seeing this more in the daytime.

Nicely laid out memorial very peaceful and close to Lincolns Memorial, Martin Luther King and many other memorials. Names inscribed on a wall and life like figures gave you feel of what it was like.

Reminds you how pointless wars are and how politicians exploit the armed forces. A huge tribute to the many who laid down their lives during the Korean War, fighting in a far away land that they knew nothing about and in a war that was totally unclear to all. A serene pause and a moment to pay a tribute.

The first time I visited the Korean memorial was years ago in November in the wind and rain and it really touched me. It just felt like you were there with the wind blowing the grasses and the light breaking on the faces of the statues. It was really eerie and wonderful. It gave you a glimpse of how scary... More

I only had 2 things on my "Must Do" things in D.C. See this and the Lincoln Memorial at night. It was a fabulous trip. I recommend, if you are not on a tour bus, hire a cab and ask them to come back an hour or so later. It will be much easier. I will also recommend seeing it... More

We walked around to visit all the memorials. The Korean one was very memorable, reminds how many people gave up their lives in that war.

Well worth the visit. It is amazing to look at the statues and the etchings on the wall. Really a beautiful memorial.
