On this, the 100th anniversary of the National Park Service, we take a look at the Park Service's lesser known charges: the national monuments and memorials of the United States. Some honor figures or historical sites, while others celebrate the natural beauty of the country. And then there are the solemn, beautiful memorials to soldiers and others who gave their lives for their country. So which of the memorials and monuments cared for by the National Park Service do we visit the most? According to the National Park Service's Annual Park Ranking for Recreation Visitors for 2015, these are the top 50, from least to most visitors.
