Tribute
Wesley Bolin Plaza is a park located opposite the Arizona State Capitol building. It contains 30 monuments and/or memorials and I've featured many of them here before. I somehow missed this one. It's the Korean War Memorial paying tribute to the 280 Arizonans who were killed or reported missing during that war.
It's such a pretty and peaceful looking memorial that I hate to think of it in relationship to war. It consists of a stylized pagoda with a ceremonial temple bell inside.
I'll have to look at my photos and see if I have something for all 30. I don't think I do so I might have to go scouring the park once again. When it's cooler!
