 Arlington Memorial Bridge
Washington DC Arlington Memorial Bridge, admired by many Washington D.C. visitors as one of the most beautiful bridges in the U.S., was built in a neo-classical urban design to match the other pristine buildings that make up the landmarks of the nationā€˜s capitol. While many drive over this expansive bridge each day, few may stop to actually admire it.

Crossing the Potomac River, the bridge is 2,163 feet long and 75 feet wide, including a 15-foot pedestrian walkway. Nine beautiful arches cross the river on this bridge, which was once a drawbridge but is now inoperative. Kids love walking...
