Few presidents achieved so much during so little time as Abraham Lincoln. Though he only served for one term before his assassination, he guided America through its only Civil War, preserved the union, and ended slavery. The Lincoln Memorial does perfect justice to the 16th president of the United States. Modeled after the Parthenon in Greece, this historic monument includes a pillared structure and a nearly 20-foot-tall statue of Lincoln inside. Today it is a prominent tourist destination for travelers across the globe.
