From the source
Washington Monument on the National Mall: very tall, very classic, and an easy DC landmark to orient around.

The official hours page says the monument is open daily from 09:00 to 17:00 and closed for Independence Day and Christmas Day, plus one day a month for maintenance. The NPS fees page currently publishes 2026 maintenance closure dates, while the hours page still displays older example dates, so this row stays slightly cautious.
