This is always the first place we go to everytime we go to Washington DC. It always looks good in all our pictures...day or night. Beautiful architecture!

Love to take folks to the capitol when they come to DC..granted it was more fun before 9/11 when it was super easy to access etc. etc. but is still really neat spot that most tourists seem to skip..lots of folks assume you cant just walk in..but Hey this is America..Walk right in and watch congress in action from the gallery..call ahead make an appt with your congressmen..etc etc.. and a cool building to boot!!

best place in washington dc to ever see its so beautiful to see that capitol building i hope to stay at the holiday innn onthe hill the staff there was so great the last time i stayed there

Take your family to visit this place where the laws are made for our country. If you are able to visit when congress is in session, that will be even better. Sit in on a hearing on a bill that might be of interest to your community. Watch the debates on the SEnate or House floor. But, but all means, make this a highlight of your trip.

I had a great time there and I was really impressed when it was our time to take the tour of the capitol. It is a beautiful place and our tour guide was very knoledgeable and held our attention was very loud so we could hear all he was saying. I can hardly wait to go and take my grandkids to visit there. That building has a lot of history and the Status were large. Paintings were large and held alot of history.

A tour to the capital and its associated museums will give your family a sound experience for knowledge and fun acquisition. The better time to visit is summer or in the begining of autumn, when flowers are in blossom and the weather is pleasant.

The tour is great and very educational.My
greatgrandmother was the first telephone operator in the Capitol and worked with 8 Presidents personally and trained everyone
under her.They flew a U.S.flag over the Capitol and sent it to us in her honor as well as many others.A beautiful landmark ecspecially in Spring with all the cherry
blossom trees ...

The feeling of our fore fathers and what they died for in giving us freedom!!! Seeing all the history of the USA and the Great Leaders of Yesterday and Present.

parking was a prolbem,but the whole adventure was great. There were other tourist attractions in the immediate vicinity,like the indian museum,other federal buildings etc.there were good restaurant too near by.
