More than a cemetery, it is the history of our country and an enduring tribute to those who have served honorably and those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. Look upon the funerals with reverence, listen to the sound of taps in the distance, view the time-honored Changing of the Guard ceremony, watch a group lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, discover over thirty monuments and memorials, and thank a service member. At Arlington National Cemetery you are invited to Honor, Remember, and Explore.

The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. It is a decent 10 minute hilly walk from the entrance. You can also take the trolley from the entrance (it makes many stops at various locations in teh Cemetary) but the trolley does cost around $15-$20 per person.
