Utah State Capitol

I have finally seen the renovated Utah State Capitol and it is beautiful! Seriously one of the prettiest buildings in Utah, especially when you know a little about its architecture.


Vera is standing on skylights that take in the light from the rotunda and filter it down to the ground level.



Here the docent is explaining about the Butterfly Marble found on several walls in the main rotunda area.



I remember having a family picture taken on these steps when I was a kid and we came to see the capitol.



Isn't Jamison a great photographer?



One of the beautiful white lions that guard the east entrance.



Free tours of the capitol are given daily on the hour and last about 60 minutes. Click here fore more details.
