Very Scenic - The tidal basin in Washington during early morning hours is a peaceful and scenic place to visit. Huge granite monoliths greet you as you enter the MLK memorial and with a variety of quotes along walls within the structure. Looking across the basin gives you a view great view of the Washington monument. The The FDR memorial houses of fantastic waterfall, columns, and well as quotes along each wall. Certainly a good place to relax and destress with a good view.
