Arlington National Cemetery

Arlington National Cemetery has at least two web sites, an official web site as well as one run by an enthusiast. The latter web site contains much more information about the various features and memorials in the Cemetery.

We visited Arlington twice, in the summers of 2007 and 2011. It cloudless and hot when we arrived in 2007, but became overcast and drizzly toward the end of our visit. If you visit in the summer, I do recommend bringing in bottled water, as there are few drinking fountains (there are some located near the Memorial Amphitheater; we didn't find out about this until fairly late in our visit).
