Lonely Planet review

On the southern side of the Plaza de Bolívar stands a monumental stone building in neoclassical style, the Capitolio Nacional, which is the seat of Congress. It was begun in 1847, but due to numerous political uprisings was not completed until 1926. The facade facing the square was designed by English architect Thomas Reed.
