Anamosa Prison Museum

by ArenJo

This prison museum is fairly interesting if you're in the area. It's small, but cheap and the gift shop has lots of unique items.

Iowa State Campus

by ArenJo

This campus is really pretty. A nice walk around if you're in town for a few days. It also contains museums.

Reimen Gardens

by ArenJo

These are butterfly gardens. I personally found them to be boring and not extensive, but if you are really into butterflies or gardens, this just might be for you!

Iowa State Fair

by ArenJo

I personally found this to be very boring and a waste of money, but a lot of people enjoy it. You pay to get in, then everything inside costs extra money.

Iowa State Capital

by ArenJo

This building is beautiful. Very picture worthy.

View from under the Capitol dome

by Reverend

That is an actual flag in the mural under the dome. The flag is suspended by wires in the center of the mural, giving a real three-dimensional effect.
