The cemetery where the soldiers who fell in the Civil War of 1861-1865 are buried. Over time, this place became the last refuge for several American presidents. J. Kennedy and his wife are buried here. The cemetery is located on a picturesque plain and attracts attention with orderly rows of white memorial plates. Each year, a solemn procession lays flowers on the graves.

We were impressed how respectful they were. Wanted to read the names of the soldiers, wars fought in etc. Definitely can spend more than half the day walking through everything but well worth your time. A must of the changing of the guard which is indeed every half hour. The unknown buried soldier, so much to see. Make sure you pick up a map of the grounds. Bring a reusable water bottle if you are visiting in the summer. Many water filling stations. Comfortable shoes, and a phone or camera to take photos. It it a huge place, you can take a tour with a guide which will only get you to "the major must things to see" but you can do a self guided tour if you have read up on some or have knowledge of American history, otherwise there is a tram (trolley) that takes you through the cemetery but again to the "main spots". No amount of pictures can do this wonderful place justice. Highly recommended.
