We then went to the Library of Parliament, but were not allowed to take pictures. Following that, we took the elevator up the Peace Tower. I got this shot of the Library of Parliament. It just reopened two years ago after a major 4-year restoration. They had the entire library shrouded and at one point, they had the top of it removed and brought down to ground level to be worked on.

I was very interested to see red sandstone among the stone of this building. I looks really interesting with the copper roof. Before the restoration, it was all black.

I neglected to take a general picture of the Parliament Buildings, but you might enjoy visiting this site. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parliament_Hill
