I know as a local I'm not "supposed" to enjoy the touristy stuff but damnit, the monuments are beautiful and the mall is such a nice place to spend time outside. I love walking from the Washington monument to the Lincoln memorial past the WW2 Memorial and reflecting pool. Also still blows my mind the Lincoln memorial has a store INSIDE of it, one of my favorite fun facts.
What kind of lame local thinks they're too cool for the mall. We have a bunch of free world class museums and some gorgeous monuments all in the same area. How can a person dislike that!? Especially in like November-March when the tourists are gone.
