Capitol Hill Office Building

As we took our walking tour of DC we decided to head over to the Capitol Building to see it in real life.
Since this was my first time visiting the city, seeing this historic building was incredible and thinking about the history that has been made in this building gave me shivers.
This is a must see building that everyone should visit because of the beauty of the surrounding area. We just hope that in the future we can go in and tour the complex.

Simply Amazing!
Took my family for the tour of Capital Hill building and was humbled.
There is a free guided tour every day from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. If you don’t mind the security throwing all of your water and food out of your bag, than get ready for the greatest tour your have ever been on.
1^st, they wisk your group of about a 100 into a theater and show you a short film on the history of the Capital Hill building narrated by Angelou Maya. From it’s humble inception to its completion despite the hardship of the nation, brought tears to my eyes and pride in my heart. Felt very patriotic and knew the meaning of the country after this.
2^nd part of the tour is a guided tour with you putting on a headset, so you and your group of 20 can follow him as he points out all the significant paintings, priceless statues and roman architecture and the story behind them, throughout the building. The amount of historical monuments inside this building could probably house several museums!
The 30 minute tour will humble you and keep you in awe of our magnificent country and all the great leaders that sacrificed themselves for the good of the republic.
Highly recommended!!!

Not sure what to comment on but I definitely think that the open lawns have scope for improvement.
Keeping the politics and the great decisions ;) made inside the Capitol Hill, I’ve still give them a 2-​star.
For those of you who don’t know this, you can arrange for a tour inside the building. Get your reservations from here —
Parking is a nightmare. But if you drive up after 7pm, you will usually find a spot. If not just take the Metro and get off at either of these stops — Capitol South (Orange/​Blue),
Federal Center SW (Orange/​Blue) or Union Station (Red).
And the botanical garden is right next to the Capitol Hill.
Hope this helps!

It is amazing feeling standing in front of the Capitol Hill Building! Before only see it on TV. What an experience!
The architecture is so beautiful. Just can’t get enough of it… and keep taking pictures!
The whole area is clean. The grass is maintained nicely. Police Officers are walking around the building all the time.
If you are visiting Washington D. C… absolutely spend some time there!

Look, at this point, I don’t care if you’re affiliated with the Republicans, Democrats, Tea Party, Aliens, Conspiracy Theorists or whatever party your waving.
To hold Americans hostage by your childish rhetoric is incomprehensible, sickening, disgusting, outrageous, blasphemy, heartless, cruel, coward and I can even say it’s a terrorist act against the people of the United States of America.
Millions of people are affected by this shutdown and all you do is play the blame game and point fingers at each other.
Jesus Christ… you’re like two, bratty, spoiled siblings who can’t get along.
Our founding fathers are rolling in their graves.
At this point in time, it’s not about Liberal or Conservative issues. It should be about what is right for the people, and what you’re doing is not right for the people.
SMH…

After several tourist stops around D.C., I was exhausted. But I still made my way over to the Capitol Hill Office Building where our elected officials make a lot of big decisions about the future of this nation.
I never went on an official tour, but I did take my time admiring the architecture. I also marveled at just how big and massive it was.
That’s what she said!
Bad joke aside, the secruity staff was busy all around the building. Good to know people are working hard on the outside of this building. It really seems as if no one is working hard on the inside of it.
Kidding.
Well, sort of.
