    Free museum next to the capital building. Prior to starting our self guide tour of the capital; the visitor center staff member also recommend us coming here for a visit when we were done. Well, worth the stop to learn more regarding the history of the area. This was free when we went.

    This is probably the coolest thing about the city, all these beautiful painted boots around the downtown. We had a good time trying to find them all, and getting our pictures with them. Pretty impressive.

    This is a wonderful museum that depicts the Wild Wild West and its allure that attracts thousands of visitors every year. From the railroads to the cowboys and Indians to the big boots out front, this place has it all.

    Its well worth stopping and having a look around the Cheyenne Depot museum. Even if your not that into trains its a good place to find out about the history of the area. The depot itself is a lovely building built in 1886. $10 well spent. There is free parking on the streets near by. They also have a great gift shop.

    This is an okay drive, but is especially good as a route to take when you have time to stop and get out of your car. There are trail networks that will provide some real fresh air.

    This is a lifetime event that should not be missed. They round up cowboys from all over the country and they come to this event once a year. The event brings in 1000*s of people each year and they put on a display of rodeo, bull riding, and other fun events.

    Very knowledgeable and engaging guide, interesting piece of history and US military background. Well maintained retired facility from a relic of missile history.

    We were unable to visit this Capitol building for years because of the recent major renovation. I am glad we saw it after the renovation. It looks great inside and out.
    We were impressed with the building and the art inside it.
    The staff were very helpful and friendly

    Beautiful landscaping and paths to meander through. The grounds have gorgeous plants, flowers and trees with unusual displays such as an antique train and tractor. The outdoor kids area is delightful! The display inside is wonderful, it feels like you are walking through a fairytale! There are Large plants, flowers, a fishpond with turtles and fantastic pieces of art. There in no entry charge, donations are appreciated.

    After self-touring the Wyoming State Capitol building, we stopped to self-tour the historic governors' mansion. The house is a beautiful structure. Inside, the various rooms are like time capsules displaying moments in time for the most recent occupants. A friendly docent was happy to answer questions.

    On Sept. 6 we again stopped here with 15 people on the way back from Yellowstone, figuring the welcome center would be open on a Tuesday. It was and everyone was really glad we stopped as the facility is most interesting, informative and well done, a very worthwhile stop. Most important, the little sign on the entrance doors to the main area now says open every day, unlike last time when we were so disappointed that the display rooms weren't open weekends. I change my rating from 1 to 5.

    Some of the signs are missing yet this still and impressive locomotive to behold. If you or the children are fans of trains this is a must see if you are in Cheyenne. With wheels 6 feet tall you will be impressed by this behemoth.
