🇺🇸 Welcome to Washington D.C.!

The Washington Monument is an obelisk on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., built to commemorate George Washington, the first President of the United States (1789–1797). The monument, made of marble, granite and bluestone gneiss, is both the world's tallest predominantly stone structure and the world's tallest obelisk , standing almost 555 feet (169 m). It is the tallest monumental column in the world if all are measured above their pedestrian entrances. From 1884 to 1889 it was the tallest structure in the world, passing the Cologne Cathedral in Germany, and it was overtaken by the Eiffel Tower in Paris ( from Wikipedia ).

MiniWorld3D is happy to bring this historical model to life as a homage to all the people of the United States. This model was designed by collaborator Trevor DePodesta. Please give credit, it's all about spreading culture and education!
