I
enjoy
touring
state
capitol
buildings
when
I
travel.
We
went
through
security
&
got
a
self
guided
tour
pamphlet
at
the
tour
desk.
I
did
call
up
in
advance
to
check
if
they
have
guided
tours,
unfortunately
they
did
not
have
one
when
we
planned.
I
would
recommend
a
guided
tour,
as
it
gets
you
in
to
the
house
and
senate
chambers.
I
did
some
research
before
visiting
the
capitol
so
was
able
to
relate
things.
A
very
nice
capitol
building
with
ornate
interior.
It
is
beautiful
and
well
maintained.
The
interior
is
modeled
in
the
Italian
Renaissance
style
with
doors
made
of
Indiana
oak
and
Indiana
limestone
used
throughout
the
structure.
The
pinnacle
of
the
building
is
256
feet
high,
it
was
the
second
tallest
building
in
Indiana
at
the
time
of
its
completion.
The
four-story
building
is
designed
in
the
shape
of
a
cross.
A
large
central
rotunda
with
a
glass
domed
ceiling
connects
the
four
wing.
The
interior
is
marked
by
beautifully
intricate
blue
stained
glass
dome,
marble
floors,
granite
columns,
an
ornate
balcony,
and
period
wall
and
ceiling
designs.
It
was
remarkable
and
best
viewed
from
the
upper
floor.
The
Indiana
Capitol
is
one
of
the
few
where
all
three
branches
of
government
still
meet
in
the
Capitol!
There
are
stairs/or
elevators
to
all
the
levels
and
each
floor
is
different.
The
first
floor
houses
the
governor's
office
and
the
offices
of
the
administration.
Enjoyed
walking
around
the
third
and
fourth
floors
taking
in
the
architecture
and
viewing
the
various
chambers
through
the
windows
since
they
were
not
open
for
access.
We
saw
the
statues
of
past
presidents
and
other
public
art
structures
surround
the
building.
It's
worth
a
visit
learning
something
about
history.
This
was
one
of
the
beautiful
state
houses
I
have
been
to
and
also
one
of
the
state
house
that
didn't
explain
much
about
their
rich
history.
We
wouldn't
have
known
much
about
their
history
if
I
did
not
do
research
prior
visiting.
We
couldn't
get
much
information
on
the
two
page
pamphlet
they
provided.
Also
there
was
no
attendant
in
the
tour
desk
so
no
information
was
provided
about
anything.
Comparatively
I
felt
they
didn't
care
about
their
visitors,
so
three
stars.
The
entrance
was
not
stroller
friendly.
There
is
paid
parking
and
metered
street
parking
around
the
building.
