The capitol’s magnificent dome contains 750 lights that illuminate the blindfolded woman atop the dome representing Blind Justice. The intricately detailed interior is sure to charm visitors with its use of stained glass and marble. On the extensive grounds visitors can find a memorial to the women of the Confederacy, the battleship figurehead from the second USS Mississippi, and examples of the state tree, the magnolia.
