If you can't get to Washington, D.C. to see the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, a replica of the Wall is now on permanent display in Elizabethtown, Kentucky at the Nature Park. This eighty percent scale version is located at 1900 Ring Road in Elizabethtown in a serene and well-maintained park. In addition to the Wall, the park has statues honoring each branch of the military and those who worked in civil service. Rubbings of the names can be made from the replica just like the Wall in D.C. The park is located ten minutes from I-65 and has ample parking for cars or buses. This is an excellent day-trip destination and I can think of over 58,000 reasons why you should add it to your list of places to visit in Kentucky.
