Christmas trees in the halls of the Capitol

A CAPITOL CHRISTMAS

 

Each Christmas season, the South Dakota State Capitol building in Pierre gets adorned, inside and out, for Christmas at the Capitol. Nearly 100 decorated trees line the halls and fill the rotunda. The festivities last from just before Thanksgiving to right after Christmas.
