Arlington, Virginia is perhaps best known by visitors to the Washington Metropolitan Area for Arlington National Cemetery, one of the most famous national cemeteries in the world. There are, however, several other very interesting monuments and memorials located in Arlington as well as in nearby Alexandria that are well worth exploring. From the iconic United States Marine Corps War Memorial (also known as the Iwo Jima Memorial) to the lesser known lovely and moving Navy-Marine Memorial (known affectionately as Waves and Gulls), here are several monuments and memorials that are well worth seeing during your next visit to the Arlington, Virginia area.
