A monument is an edifice made to commemorate an event or a person or an artistic object. They are also utilized to improve a city's or location's appearance. Planned cities like New Delhi, Brasilia and Washington D.C. are often built up around monuments. The location of the Washington Monument was considered to help form public space in the city before it got associated with George Washington. Monuments in older cities are located at places which are already significant or are redesigned to draw attention on one. The purpose of a monument is basically to awe or impress someone. According to English language, the word monumental is used to address something of extraordinary power and size. The word originates from Latin word �monere� which means �to warn� or �to remind�.
