UNITED STATES CAPITOL

From its elevated site, described as a pedestal waiting for a monument, the dignified Capitol has stood unwavering as the symbol of the American democractic process (an often rough-and-tumble one) throughout its more than 200-year history. The Capitols frescoes and art collection qualify it as a notable museum, but its millions of tourists come, above all, to brush shoulders with history, both remembered and in the making.
