  I enjoyed the State Capitol through the eyes of our 9yo son who loved the statues, the steps and the gold dome. In a few short moments I was able to get some basic Wyoming history. It's worth a visit, if passing through the area.

  Neat capitol that was meeting as I visited. I asked if there was a unique feature to the building and was told there was a particular stair support that was installed upside down, because no place is prefect. Found it!The Indian statue in front is one of four and has a neat history.

  Coming from larger states "back East" this relatively small state capitol building offers amazing access to the visitor - no guards, no metal detectors, no x-ray machines, etc. We just strolled up the front steps and in the door and could have wandered directly into the governor's office. The architecture and sculpture was very nice - particularly in the rotunda and the two legislative chambers. There is a nice sense of history with pictures of each legislative session on the walls. Staff was very welcoming and friendly throughout.

  Tells the story of Wyoming's role in women's suffrage! She was the first woman justice of the peace in the nation, and Wyoming led the nation in women's suffrage. Not suffering!

  This building looks large on the outside but when you get in it seems much smaller. Having worked for the Illinois legislature I'm a fan of capitol building so we've been to many. This is a nice capitol building for a small state. Nothing too ornate, very understated. Unfortunately there are only self-guided tours so we wandered on our own with a brochure. We did meet a very helpful State Senator who answered a number of my questions. We were also encouraged to go into the Governor's office to see some of the artwork in there. Overall it was a nice experience but I wish there had been a tour offered.

  if there were guided tours I would have rated this excellent, free self guided tour, all staff very pleasant and helpful. 2 hour on street parking near the building.plenty of exhibits, paintings and information panels around the walls , don't miss the mural on the third floor committee room wall ( thanks to the maintenance man for highlighting its contents)well worth the effort to visit. The Wyoming museum is just across the street.The lady on the information desk was also most helpful.

  This is a beautiful state capital and a little history never hurts a person. This is directly down from the train station and great views the Train Station or Capital from the train station. This is right near the governers mansion as well. The ground make a good picnic stop before or after touring the capital. The dome is beautiful and it is well taken care of.

  As a photographer one of my favorite places to photograph is state capitol buildings, inside and out. This is a gorgeous building with great sculptures around the grounds. Without any special permission or permits, I was allowed to bring in my tripod and make photographs, which I did first thing in the morning. Everyone was very friendly.

  What a nice gold dome. Reminds me of my home state capitol. Walk though the front door and there is the governor's office. Real nice woodwork. Fun to walk around and go into both chambers. Very well preserved state capitol. Be sure to pick up the post cards showing the stages of the capitol to present day. Whether a visitor or a resident, go to the capitol building.
