The State Capitol is full of many surprising finds -- and that's even before you set foot on the floor of the House or the Senate. For starters, there's the fact that unlike at the Denver City and County Building, the Capitol has no security check, so you can wander in and out at will. And as you wander, you can gaze at great artwork dating from all eras of Colorado history, look up at the impressive interior of the dome (now closed to most traffic, sadly), and even see a public servant or two putting your money to use. Although the elevators have recently been overhauled from their creaky, cranky former condition, don't skip the stairs: The cannonballs on the railings are genuine Civil War artifacts.
