    I have toured the Texas State House once before during my time
    in Austin, Texas. The Texas State Capitol amazed me.

      What does that comment even mean? It's called speaking in Third person. He's telling the story 'as the Capitol itself". You should have learned that in school. If you say, "my dog would experience this event as such. Does that mean your dog told the story"? No.

    Thank Christopher Wren's St. Paul's cathedral dome for the inspiration for this one.

    I've lived near Austin for almost 11 years, but I still haven't been to the Capitol! I've always wanted to see inside, but I never seem to get around to it.

    I am a proud Austinite, born and raised. I found this video by researching the commemorative waltz written for the opening of the building. I just wanted to share that.

    Not very ornate, no wonder Pennsylvania's capitol building is such a feast for the eyes, inside and out.

      Jacob Jones is correct. The city is spelled capitAL. The building is spelled capitOL.
