We love state capitols and have traveled to many states and witnessed many tall and historic buildings. The culture of these buildings is precious and they all should be preserved.

My wife, son and I toured the museum. I though it was nice but they were performing a lot of restoration and mush of the building was closed. Would love to come back when they are finished.
