Sitting majestically atop Albany’s State Street hill, the New York State Capitol has served as the seat of government for New York since the 1880s. The building is a marvel of late 19th-century architectural grandeur, built by hand of solid masonry over a period of 32 years. All tours of the New York State Capitol last up to one hour and are free of charge.

I was really hoping for it to be more interesting… There was no tour and there wasn’t much to see around the building. Wasn’t even able to go up the front stairs because it’s closed off due to being unsafe…

If you’re visiting the area, it’s well worth checking out the capitol building. The craftsmanship and history of this building is pretty amazing. Photographs don’t do it justice. You need to see this with your own eyes. The detail in the stone carvings is a must see. The concourse that runs below the area is also pretty cool. You can stop in Logan’s and get a delicious sandwich while you’re there.

It’s gonna help you to find the most tourist place of Albany .
