Indiana State Capitol

I made a brief visit to the Indiana Statehouse, the capitol Indiana, to take advantage of a bit of free time I had while my wife and son went shopping. Like other buildings of its kind, it is clearly inspired by the Washington DC Capitol with classical, Renaissance and Hellenistic elements and a large dome. It is not built on a hill, as Indianapolis is completely flat, and it is located in the city center, just two blocks from the Monument Circle. From the outside, it's an imposing building, and the gardens are not as big as those I've seen in other capitols, but they do contain several interesting sculptures.
