Friendly people! It's nice when our elected officials come out of their offices and chit chat. I give my grandkids a tour when they are in the 1st and 6th grades so they can see Wyoming in action.

I have been to many historical government buildings through my studies and while this isn't the grandest structure it still has it unique elements. Like ever other state capitol it represents that state is resides. The building is smaller than most, but this reflects the population of Wyoming.

Cheyenne is a sweet little town and capital of Wyoming. The State capitol is right in the middle and an imposing building without being over the top. Had the impression that the streets in the vicinity seem full of pretty houses converted to attorneys offices. Says it all really.

Very informative tour, I took a group of seniors to the capitol, it was great to see where the "brass" of the state do their thing. History galore will be learned when you visit our State capitol.

Great building - really beautiful with gorgeous woodwork. The outside is impressive too with lots of statues. Being from the east coast where we use metal detectors for just about everything I was surprised they just let you walk on in without any type of security check! I'm so glad we stopped here - the building was great.
