Pace Yourself
Be prepared for exercise. Visiting the memorial involves a bit of walking. Obtain a map of the sites and plan appropriately.
Dress Appropriately for the Season
There are good walking distances between some of the monuments. For the warmer months, wear light airy clothing and wide brim hats for protection from the sun. In wetter months, you may want to bring along protective clothing. Check the weather the day of your visit.
