The Capitolio was built with the Washington D.C. USA's Capitol in mind. It was once the home of the Government, but is now home to only the Ministry of Science, Environment and Technology.
The Dome which is almost 92 m (300ft) high, stands higher than the Washington's Capitol. From the inside the Dome which stands close to 62m high, is the coats of arms of Cuba's provinces.
In the main entrance stands the Statue of the Republic which stands 17m high, weights 49tons and is also the 3rd largest indoor statue in the world.
The Salon de los Pasos Perdidos is a sumptuous hall with great marble and unusual acoustics.
