Of the capitals listed that I've visited, I'd give nods to Sacramento and Denver. Both have beautiful capital buildings. Denver's has a gold dome. The grounds around Sacramento's are gorgeous. Texas' capital building is HUGE, although I've never seen it.
Arizona's capitol area could stand to be improved, beauty wise, IMO, but I like the copper dome design.
Sacramento is the most underrated city on the west coast as far as I'm concerned.
Albany NY
Hartford CT
Trenton NJ
Harrisburg PA
Boston MA
Ann Arbor MI
St. Paul MN
Atlanta GA
Raleigh NC
Nashville TN
Little Rock AK
If you're not connected to state government, there is no reason to visit many state capitols. I've been numerous times to Chicago and San Francisco, for instance. But who needs Springfield or Sacramento? Nice places I'm sure, but hardly enough to attract a lot of visitors.
And IMO, Harrisburg, Trenton, Albany, and Little Rock, are the pits. Hartford comes close. The rest are OK.
