Wisconsin State Capitol

b bbbbbbbb bbbbbbb

The Wisconsin State Capitol in Madison, Wisconsin is the next building I’ve picked because it’s the capitol of my hometown.  I remember visiting the capitol in elementary school. It was a very exciting place to be at that time, partially because I was little and everything was fun during that time. The architect of this amazing capitol was George B. Post and some of the styles put into this building were the Beaux-Arts architecture and Classical Revival architecture. With a total of 13 acres in area, it houses both legislation chambers. One unique fact is that the Madison Capitol is the only capital to be built on an isthmus. Another thing that I find interesting is the Resources of Wisconsin Mural that is painted on the top of Capitol Dome. The painting centered in the middle of the rotunda surrounded by glass windows is a wonderful sight to see. Some countries that influenced the building were the Doge’s Palace in Venice and French furniture. With the capitol’s diversity, it is a to go destination, the next time you visit Wisconsin.
