This would have to be my most favorite looking building in the world! It has the most amazing architecture and paintings! Before i ever saw it in real life i didnt think it was anything special but then i saw it in real life and it was awesome! Sitting a top capitol hill and the end of the national mall it is just great. It has statues of some of ...

We had a very in depth tour of the Capitol Building. It was beautiful inside. I remember, at age 13, looking up at the rotunda, walking on the marble floors and hearing about the "listening holes" in the floors so that everyone could hear what was going on in such a large area. Sorry for being vague, but it was 20 years ago and I ...

It's very interesting and i actually got a chance to sit in on a meeting in the chambers and got to see how it goes in person instead of always watching it on tv

The Capitol is awesome but it is a very crowded place. We connected with our senator's office and had a very nice tour with one of his interns (who was very knowledgeable and explained the history of what we were seeing).....however, the highlight was sitting in the Senate gallery and watching the Senators come for a vote! Timing is ...

Some may not be affected in this way, but a true American who loves their country and respects our history and our forefathers will find our U.S. Capitol extremely worth visiting. Having a guide is most important. You learn way more than you ever thought you knew.

All of the reviewers that said this tour was great must have contacted their congressperson and gotten the other tour. I did not and was very disappointed. My tour started under the rotunda with many other groups making it difficult to hear my tour guide. Then we went to the old senate chambers that are no longer in use. We finished our tour in ...

The capital was the best part of our visit to Washington. You MUST contact your senator and have a guided tour. We were very forunate to have a tour quide by ourselves. We started early and be the crowds and were able to stay longer at certain places. We went onto the Dole balcony which is reserved for the majority leader. The view of Washington is ...

Before visiting the Capitol coordinate with your Senator or Representative so that you can get tickets to visit both houses on your visit.

You may even be lucky enough to spend sometime with that rep and see Congress in action from the viewing balconies.

The tour is ok, but without the first part not near as interesting.

Be sure to eat in ...

The only thing that i dislike was that there was alot of construction going on since it was right before the presidents second term. U know for the parade. Besides that it was great theres alot of thing to do to see to be a part of i mean overall it is the countrys capital.
