New Jersey State House

I will be honest, this was a really bad state capitol, and I have been to many. Outside of the scaffolding which I know is temporary, it is not in the nicest style; state capitols usually have loads of statues and memorials, but this one only had the WWII, for which the one star is given, because it is admittedly very nice. Other than that, it is not in a nice place, and when you try to take a photo from the other side, you are/will be in the road. Lastly, it isn’t even open on weekends like every other state Capitol I’ve been to, and there are no self-guided tours. If you’re wondering why Jersey is so poorly run, look no further than here. I’d take a photo then get outta there.

I took the free tour you just have to call ahead and get your name on the list and it was excellent. Erica was a lot of fun and provided many interesting facts about the building and how the Jersey government functions. Highly recommended.

I enjoyed the scenery and walking around the place. Nice to get to see a lot of the history of the state I live in. Was upset that the library was closed when I went though. Wouldn’t mind visiting again.

Its a shame that some of the buildings are falling apart. Nice grounds

Nice place to visit. Has the 2nd World War Memorial and nice river views

I can't write a Google review for the entire state, so this is the next best thing. Dear New Jersey, why? No, like seriously, why do you exist? Like, sure, some great culture has seeped out of this armpit of America, much like sweat out of an actual armpit. Sure, we have The Sopranos, the movie Clerks, The Jersey Shore! But I would give it all up to just not be forced to see this state on the map of our fine United States of America. P.S.: Learn to pump your own gas.

The tour was brief, the building unspectacular.

Cool place. Under-visited. Decent art collection. Not a destination, but go if you're in downtown Trenton near the statehouse.

Quiet small, the main building is closed, very few people are visiting, and it's not opened during the weekends. The folks are very friendly and I was guided by Jenny, and she explained very neat and clean.

We took a tour of the place and it was very interesting. The history was very colourful, as well as the lighting and background.
