Go in the morning for the sunlight on building
The visitor center inside the building was closed with no explanation and a woman randomly volunteered to provide a tour (thank you) but we self-guided with my own research. It's a terrific structure with some things to see but it doesn't take too long to do that. We did not park as we walked here .

Very nice capitol building
Very nice building perched above the downtown area. Two Civil War era cannon in the entrance lobby, one from Bull Run and the other from Gettysburg. The interior of the dome is beautiful and visitors are allowed to wander the halls. A museum displays the Rhode Island state Charter. When we visited, there was no signage telling visitors about how to enter the building; the entrance is on the side at the top of the hill.
