THERE'S A BURGER KING IN THE PENTAGON! A little known fact unless you've visited. I would totally review it, even though it's a Burger King, purely based on the fact that its in the Pentagon. This was probably the most shocking thing of all. It's said that in the center of the Pentagon is/was a hot dog stand. Foreign nations always thought the Pentagon was guarding something at the center, so making that hot dog stand, the WORLD'S MOST DANGEROUS HOT DOG STAND. Ok, this is the type of trivia I recall fondly from the Pentagon. They talk about military operations, and tours must be booked months in advance. The whole building is insanely thick to withstand a lot of trauma. The 9/11 memorial section is very solemn, and the soldier giving us a tour made a very moving speech. I would strongly advice visiting this spot, simply because it's one of the lesser known "tourist attractions." Tip: If you book as a singele person you can still get tickets maybe ~ 1 month in advance. I noticed a lot of dates with 49/50 people signed up for the tour.
