The Kansas State Capitol is a beautiful building completed in 1901 (and restorations were recently completed in the past few years, adding a visitor center on the west side (8th Street side).
The grounds have a few statues of note (Lincoln, Eisenhower, Statue of Liberty, Pioneer Woman).
The interior, though, is beautiful. There are 5 floors accessible to the public (without a guide, or as part of a tour). They also have something unique in that you can tour the dome (guided tour only), which allows you to climb up the spacious interior 306 feet -- higher than the done of the US Capitol -- and head outside for a view of...well...expansive flatness with Topeka in the foreground. (For the record, I chickened out about 3/4 of the way up.)
