The National Gallery of Art Sculpture Garden is one of the most pleasant outdoor art spaces on the National Mall. It combines modern sculpture, thoughtful landscape design, and a relaxing park atmosphere right next to the National Gallery of Art museum complex.
It is always a pleasure to walk around the National Mall, especially on a sunny day after many days of cold and gloomy weather. I was surprised that I had somehow missed this place in the past till now, considering how many times I have walked around the Mall. The garden’s central fountain and reflecting pool is drained and converted into an ice-skating rink each winter season.
