The famous Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in Washington D.C. has been refilled after maintenance, but its striking deep blue appearance has left many people surprised.
The pool was recently drained for cleaning and repairs. When water was added back, it took on this dramatic dark blue color — sparking viral reactions and questions online.
Officials say the color is temporary and due to the water treatment and lining during the refill process. The pool will gradually return to its normal appearance over time.
This unexpected visual has drawn huge attention from tourists and locals alike.
