From the Architect of the Capitol (AOC), the federal agency dedicated to preserving all buildings on the U.S. government's capital campus, comes this virtual tour that enables anyone to explore the historical buildings of Washington, D.C. The Architect's Virtual Capitol can be explored in a number of ways. In the Discover portion of this resource, visitors can check out a series of short videos addressing a range of topics, including the History of the United States Capitol, Sustainability at the Capitol, and Architects of the Capitol. Each video features embedded links that allow visitors to check out more information about a particular space in the capital. Visual learners, meanwhile, may want to explore this information via the Explore tab, which allows visitors to locate information about buildings on a three-dimensional map. Finally, the Learn section of this website organizes information about buildings and architects on a timeline.
