Is it the peaceful, serene grounds of Arlington National Cemetery? Or the sobering Pentagon Memorial?

I was unable to see them all, but over the past weekend I visited Arlington National Cemetary, Tomb of the Unknowns, Kennedy Gravesite, Jefferson Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, Washington Monument, Air Force Memorial. (Didn't have time to see Marine Corps War Memorial or The Wall.) Of what we did see so far, I liked the Tomb of the Unknowns best... very poignant and moving
