Hiking

The location of the monument also corresponds to the "forgotten founder". More or less hidden behind the monumental building of the Jefferson Memorial. That's why you should go there!

The memorial commemorates the work of George Mason, an important founding father of the United States who wrote the Virginia Declaration of Rights and attended the 1787 Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia as a delegate but is often considered a "forgotten founder."
