🚗 40-Day US Road Trip: Kentucky – Lincoln’s Birthplace
📍 Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historical Park in Hodgenville, Kentucky, commemorates the birthplace of the 16th U.S. President, Abraham Lincoln. The park consists of two main sites: the location of the log cabin where Lincoln’s family lived, and the Lincoln Memorial Building, constructed in the early 20th century to honor his life. 🏛️ The Lincoln Memorial—a Neoclassical structure—houses a symbolic log cabin representing Lincoln’s humble origins. Although not the original cabin, it stands as a powerful tribute to his modest beginnings. 🌳 Born in 1809 in Hardin County (now LaRue County), Kentucky, Lincoln’s early life is preserved and interpreted throughout this park. It offers a meaningful glimpse into his upbringing, his family’s struggles, and his profound impact on American history. 📚 A must-visit for history enthusiasts and admirers of Lincoln alike! #Kentucky#AbrahamLincoln#HistoricSite#USRoadTrip#RoadTrip#TravelDiaries#LogCabin#HistoricalPark
