Woldumar Nature Center

Beautiful rose garden and Grand River views.

Home to the Michigan Court of Appeals and Michigan Supreme Court, this relatively new structure is at the opposite end of a mall from the capitol.

This building houses the State Library in one wing and museum in the other. In the center is a live White Pine, the state tree. The museum is appropriate for all ages.

The gardens surround the Michigan Women's Historical Center and Hall of Fame a few blocks away from the capitol. The garden is typical of an early 20th-century garden and features a rose garden.

Beautiful and historic fountain in the center of the park in downtown Lansing

The capitol has been beautifully restored and sits in the heart of downtown Lansing surrounded by beautiful mid-rise buildings of Michigan's golden auto years. The building was dedicated in 1873; today it is a National Historic Landmark, and still the working seat of the Michigan House of Representatives and Michigan Senate. Self-guided and guided tours of the capitol are available.
