It is an impressive structure. The statue of President Lincoln is awesome. There is a great view of the Mall area from the top of the steps. If you look you can find the marker on the steps, and you can stand where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr made his "I have a Dream" speech. It is right next to the Vietnam Memorial and the Korean War Memorial. And there is a bathroom inside the Lincoln Memorial (lower level)- and they can be hard to find in DC.

On the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.
If you look at the Lincoln memorial as a whole, it is grandiose, almost palatial in it's design and construction. The statue of Lincoln seated in the chair is massive, awe inspiring and classical in it's portrayal of the martyred president. You could not build something so massive and impressive and only have a few steps leading up to it. The steps are long and drawn outward, causing the individual rising up the steps to linger longer and focus on the majesty of the memorial. I think it quite effective.
there are 58
The Lincoln Memorial steps extend to the Reflecting Pool; at present count that would be 98 steps. If one counts the steps from the road to the Memorial chamber, one would find 57. Any significance to either number is just a popular myth.
