The Khalil Gibran Memorial is one of the most obscure memorials in Washington, D.C., but one that's worth a visit if you're nearby. It's near the Observatory across the street from the U.K. Embassy and right next to the Embassy of South Africa. The memorial itself is small, but mighty. As you cross a small stone bridge, you read about this Lebanese- American writer/poet. As you wind around the memorial, you read more quotes by him until you get to the center with benches and more quotes. If you're a fan of Gibran, this is a must-visit. If you're in the area, it's a very peaceful and inspiring place to sit, reflect, and journal.

Jibran’s memorial is surrounded by beautiful flowers, with quotes carved into the seats and wall as you loop around the circle. Very profound and thought provoking quotes. Nice, small, quiet place to sit and reflect. If you’re a person of depth, you’ll appreciate it. Note: Must make a visit before sunset. There are no lights surrounding the memorial.

I parked on 30th St NW and took the Normanstone trail over the hill to Mass ave and walked the short distance to the memorial. Beautiful yet small memorial of a timeless poet. Though traffic can be loud near sunset, it's the best time to visit as the memorial is oriented west. You can also see the sun set over the British embassy. Restoring the water features would make this little spot absolutely magical.

Lovely little memorial. Just be aware it isn't a big park; no parking, bathrooms, or water fountains.
