This famous, active cemetery is across the well-known Potomac River from the world-famous Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. Over 14,000 veterans are buried here, some dating back to the Civil War. Known for its iconic white headstones, veteran visitors suggest seeing President John F. Kennedy’s gravesite and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, which contains the never-identified remains of a soldier from World War I.
