2) At the end of the road is Monument Terrace.
"The inspiring rise of Monument Terrace commemorates Lynchburg citizens who fought and died in the Civil War, Spanish-American War, World Wars I and II, Korea, Vietnam and present day. At the base on Church Street stands the iconic doughboy statue. Many other sculptures and markers line the 139 steps and terraces all the way to the top, where the old Court House Museum stands on Court Street."
I thought that I've shown pictures from Monument Terrace but when I searched my blog I haven't. I know we've been up the steps and I took a few pictures. I'll have to search my archived photos for a couple to show you up close!
The graffiti is 'charming' as you say... That is a very impressive monument and I love those Christmas decorations!
ReplyDeleteThe terrace is really nice! I'd like to see it even closer. Yes, I found the graffiti. LOL
ReplyDeleteLOL, I see it. I bet this view minus the johnny on the spot looks nice in the summer.
ReplyDeleteWell, the graffiti would be helpful for non-English speaking peoples. Lol.
