Huge building! Plenty of history and information. Spent a few hours walking and looking around the building. There was some construction being done but we still saw the majority of the building.

Well worth entering and joining a tour. Beautiful building and guide was excellent in explaining history how the two houses work

Went to this beautiful Capitol building - beautiful Rotunda. The stone is Red granite from Quarry in Marble Falls. Unique.

I think it's a historic place that should be known in Texas, If you go during the day you can enter and take photographs closer to the Capitol as such however at night you can also take pictures in some places where they have excellent views

While we had seen the Capitol from the outside several times, and it is an impressive structure, we were impressed by what we saw inside. There are multiple levels that are accessible by wide stairs, and the balconies have portraits of all former governors of Texas state. Were genuinely surprised to see the few women on the walls :)! The woodwork is imposing and the inlay on the inside of the dome is beautiful. You can really sense the state's oil money in this building. The grounds are pretty. The only ding was being followed around by a person while we were exploring the grounds. We left soon after.
