There was so much to surprise about the Supreme Court. The amount of marble in the building was eye-catching. The Supreme Court was much smaller than I thought.

There was so much to surprise about the Supreme Court. The amount of marble in the building was eye-catching. The Supreme Court was much smaller than I thought. The characters used in the murals were interesting and in some cases amazing. I believe I spend time here to better understand the ideas that determine the development of our country.
The US Supreme Court passed by when it felt very spectacular and couldn't help but want to explore it. It felt a bit like a Greek building, with white pillars up against the whole building, the interior like a palace, solemn and decent.
Open every 30 minutes. We didn't go this time. If there was no visit, we could only visit the building quickly. Don't miss the hidden suspended stairs on both sides. This is not the court session time. When visiting, you can request a copy of the latest decision there.
The US Supreme Court is also open to the public, I did not expect it, so I must not miss it. The Greek-style building, the doorway is spectacular, and the minutes feel like entering the scene of the House of Cards. Security checks are relatively strict, and several uncles who look very shy are guarded at the door, looking a little scared. After security checks, they enter the ground floor hall, the most conspicuous is the statue of John Marshall, the former Chief Justice. Another feature is the spiral staircase, the classical style is beautiful, but it will be dizzy if you look too much. The court on the second floor is also open for visits during the absence of court sessions, and there will be staff to explain, but no photos can be taken. But there is a model outside, which completely restores the interior of the court, and is better than nothing, so you can take a picture.
The environment is very good, very good film, recommend sisters who want to take pictures!
Close to the Capitol, it is a building in the style of the ancient Greek temple, giving the feeling that it is more solemn than the Capitol. There are far fewer people here, the hall is empty, and the exhibits inside mainly introduce the history of the Supreme Court, how to become a corner of the separation of powers from a lower-ranking department. The trial can be heard, but the Supreme Court can not hear a few cases a year.
