A tour of the capitol while on a bus tour group. The guide was extremely well versed in all aspects of the tour. From the history of the building, the recent renovations and all the historical figures that shaped the history of Richmond.

We loved the menu---great choices, like gazpacho and sandwiches. We were there for Hot Dog Day--dog, sides and drink $5! We ate outside facing the famous building & watching people.

You can walk a few blocks from the Museum of the Confederacy to the grounds of the Virginia Capitol. We joined a tour group which was blessed with a very knowledgeable & enthusiastic guide. The building is impressive and very well maintained. An interesting feature is the dome which is not visible from the outside.
Don't miss an opportunity to visit this gem in center city Richmond. The guides are true experts and provide a year's worth of history in a few short hours. What was great about this? Everything. You will appreciate America's relationship with England, and see George Washington like never before.
Beautiful building radiating lots of history. I hope it will always illuminate Richmond, among all the new buildings.
The Capitol is a great freebie to walk the grounds and see the architecture. Easy going Capitol police even let you walk within a 100 yards of the Governors mansion that is on the grounds.
This sparkling state house is a lively likeness of the White House (and has been used in movies to stand in for it). The fairly new basement-type entry is elegant and massive and provides a decent introduction to the Capitol itself. The building is rife with US history, from early 19th C. to recent days.
