Be sure to check out the capitol building, an imposing and impressive structure in a beautiful setting. You'll get a great view of it from across the river in Ft. Pierre. Take a tour and see the interior as well, from the hand-laid mosaic tiles on the floor to the intricate paintings on the dome. The sculptures outside are also worth a look. The Fighting Stallions out front might not be your style, but the energy they represent is clear. The memorial statues of soldiers out near Capitol Lake are also impressive.

gollark: "God" implies a sentient being with agency or something, generally.
gollark: The trouble with "god is X"-type arguments is that they effectively just work by shifting definitions around a bit and imply some extra things about god/X you aren't proving.
gollark: ???
gollark: Stuff like "the universe is god" ends up just fiddling with the definitions of "god" enough to make it useless, while bringing on all the god-related baggage.
