Arkansas is the home of the beautiful Ozark Mountains, which showcase a number of state parks offering spectacular opportunities for mountain hiking and climbing, fishing, and overnight camping. The state's two preserved capitol buildings, including its modern domed building constructed to resemble the United States Capitol, are open to the public for free guided and self-guided tours throughout the year, as are a plethora of public museums and living history sites showcasing the state's pioneer, government, and military history.
