"A very beautiful building! We have visited several times, and each time we find a new nuance. It is so pivotal to have young children visit this place! Remember, everything is bigger in Texas, referencing that this is the largest state capital building in the US. You simply must visit our state capital in Texas!"
"Unfortunately lot of construction work going on when I was there night to again. Huge park area in front of the building with historic information. The congress Avenue is exactly opposite to the building and looks fantastic from the street."
"Interesting and beautiful working building which houses Texas law makers. You are able to visit the building but I guess there could be restrictions at some dates, tours are taking place all the time which you can easily join and last about 20 to 30 minutes."
"Free 30 minute tour in the building. Very informative and interesting history of Texas. Make sure to take time to walk the grounds as there are plenty ty of things to see outside as well. There is also a visitor center nearby with a lot of information about Texas."
"Visitor friendly amenities, with a 30-minute free guided tour of the building is the highlight! My guide, Austin (!) was cheerful, friendly & enthusiastic throughout the tour.... we saw the senate & house chambers, all the governors/ presidents of this great state, as well as the architectural marvel that this building is... with it's dome being taller than the US capitol in DC! The lone star at the top of the dome is 218 feet high from ground! Impressive all around! And very very historic too!!!"
