Capitol Building - Washington D.C.

The first place we went to in DC was the Capitol Building, being out hotel was just 2 blocks away! I was completely blown away at the enormity of it! Regal, humongous, historic, stunning. Those were a few words that came to mind when standing in front of the Capitol. It's very hard to walk away from the Capitol Building and not look back. There are so many memorable angles to look at the building from, and I just couldn't get enough!

The Capitol Building also offers tours , so we were all over signing up for that!  It may not seem like much, but when I knew I was taking a tour of a building the President wasn't even allowed into without permission, it was something! The tour was amazing. We got to see the Rotunda, a room with a cool secret talking passageway in it, and some very original documents of the US, such as the original copy of the Declaration of Independence, and the original copy of the Constitution! It was unreal! We even ate lunch in the Capitol and got to sit in House of Representatives!!!

Almost anywhere you are in DC you can see the Capitol Building. The building is the epitome of history, and I guarantee your visit will be nothing but the best!
