The Mall

The Capital Mall is an open-area national park in Fallout 3. It is based on the real-life National Mall in downtown Washington D.C, except the one in Fallout 3 is much smaller and has different museums.

is now a bombed-out warzone occupied by super mutants. The park itself has been replaced by a series of trenches, fences and bunkers in fortified positions where the super mutants are entrenched. Crossing this part of the Mall will involve heavy combat, but the various Metro stations on each side of this zone offer relatively safe passage.

The Brotherhood of Steel holds a defensive position around the Washington Monument in the center of the Mall, and Talon Company is taking the offense against super mutants to the west toward The Capitol Building.

The Reflecting Pool, found between the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial, is full of wrecked cars and shopping carts and its radiation is strong enough to reach a few feet away from the water.

is a key location in Fallout 3 that connects several important buildings and areas together. However, because of this, it has the second largest concentration of super mutants in the Capital Wasteland, first being Vault 87.
