点评:This capitol is one of the few that is a tall office building rather than a classic domed building like most states have. The public entrance led us into the North Dakota Hall of Fame, which was interesting. We went into the art deco Memorial Hall and weren’t sure how to get to any other public areas of the building. So we just took the elevator to the indoor observation deck on the 18th floor where we could see views of Bismarck all around. Outside there is a large grassy mall in front of the building and we walked around and looked at the statues. Past the Governor’s Residence we walked the Arboretum Trail back to the front of the capitol. We spent about 45 minutes on the inside and 30 minutes on the outside.
Don’t miss the North Dakota Heritage Center & State Museum which is right next to the capitol. We left our car in the capitol lot all afternoon while we toured the capitol and museum.
翻译:这座州议会大厦是少数几座高层办公楼,而不是像大多数州那样采用经典的圆顶建筑。公共入口将我们引向北达科他州名人堂,这很有意思。我们进入了装饰艺术风格的纪念堂,但不知道该如何前往大楼的其他公共区域。所以我们直接乘电梯到了18层的室内观景台,在那里我们可以看到俾斯麦号的全景。大楼外面有一个很大的草坪购物中心,我们四处走走,欣赏着雕像。经过州长官邸后,我们沿着植物园小径回到了州议会大厦的前面。我们在里面待了大约45分钟,在外面待了30分钟。
千万不要错过紧邻州议会大厦的北达科他州遗产中心和州立博物馆。我们整个下午都把车停在州议会大厦的停车场,然后参观了州议会大厦和博物馆。
