US CAPITAL www.visitthecapitol.gov Opening hours: Monday to Saturday 8:30 - 4:30 Free Ticket Take the Metro Blue Line to FEDERAL CETER SW and walk. The Capitol was laid by President Washington on September 18, 1793, and was put into use in 1800. The British burned it during the Second American-British War in 1814, and it was rebuilt and expanded several times. The Americans regarded the Capitol as the highest symbol of the people's, people's, and people's-owned regime, and the core building of Washington's National Mall. The simpler way to visit is to make no reservations, there are a small number of day tickets for the Capitol every day. We go to the queue at 8:10 in the morning, and we are in the top 10. 8:30 After the security check, the first batch of admissions will be made at 8:40 in the Liberation Hall. Send us a ticket, a sticky paper with bar code and visit time, and stick it on your body. There is a Chinese tour guide at the reservation desk. Waiting near the Statue of Liberty, 8:50, a commentator led the admission, a group of more than 20 people, sent to the headset. At the entrance, I watched a short film about why and how the United States built Congress and its functioning, Congress and national life. Then visit the central hall, look up to see the dome, a famous Washington feather Dengxian map. The hall is surrounded by huge canvas paintings, reflecting the American War of Independence and the major events of early development. The hall is surrounded by statues of Lincoln, astronauts on the moon, and Helen Kate, the blind. The statues include early Turkish chiefs, parliamentarians, lawyers, nuns and modern farmers, diplomats. The Chinese guide said that the 24 statues on display are part of the historical celebrity sculptures of the state selected from each state. Two are selected from each state, reflecting the contributions made by the diverse country and citizens of the United States. The narrator is very dedicated and lively and popular. Due to language constraints, we can only understand a small part. There are several groups to visit at the same time, the narrator is not loud, there are headphones to hear. Also visit the place where the councillors meet under the guidance of the guide. The whole visit is about two hours. The exterior of the Capitol is currently under repair.

    Do not miss visiting the US capitol. The building is amazing and the history it tells is a must do when visiting Washington DC. You can do a free tour where a guide is telling you a lot of facts about the building, the people who worked here and the ones who still work here. You can experience the history of the government of the United States here better then any where else.Secret tip: visit the capitol when the sun is down for a walk around the capitol garden.

    The most iconic building in Washington is the Capitol, a symbol of American politics, consisting of a domed main building and interconnecting south and north wings, the Senate on the north and the House on the south. This neoclassical building, taken from ancient Greek and Roman designs, is also upright. So many people will recognize Capitol Hill as the White House (The white house) The White House is at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in Northwest Washington, which is the residence of successive presidents when they are in office~• shooting location: The large lawn in front of the door is facing the dome of the Capitol, and you can take a very positive view of the building. (Figure 1 Figure 6 Looking back, you can take a picture of the Washington Monument, which is exactly on the same middle line (Figure 7 Guang is not far from the US Supreme Court, Colin style architecture, can be taken from the perspective of the fountain pool at the door (Figure 4)

    Before the epidemic, the Capitol Building can be booked for visiting. As the epidemic erupts, the visitor center will be closed and no appointments will be accepted. The official website can see the online version of the tour. The mode of cloud visitation is also very interesting. Update the cloud travel series in real time. Visits due to the epidemic can be visited to the parliamentarians' offices and the parliament hall. Appointment visits are free and do not require a fee, but the number of daily visits is limited, and an appointment is generally required in advance.

    The U.S. Capitol, also a scene that often appears in Hollywood movies, the highest body of American public opinion, is as symbolic of American power as the White House
