At the southern end of Puget Sound, dominated by views of the Olympic Mountains, lies Washington's capital of Olympia. The area is part of volcano country, with the spectacular Cascade Mountains and Mount St. Helens to the east. While none of the cities and towns in the region have large populations, golf courses, hiking trails and parks are in plentiful supply. Olympia displays all the somber ambiance of a capital city in the marble halls, monuments and opulent grounds of its government buildings. Art enthusiasts should visit the Washington Center for the Performing Arts, which houses performances by the Olympia Symphony Orchestra and a number of other community music, theater and dance groups. Olympia's Washington State Capital Museum houses two floors of exhibits, including displays that delve into American Indian history. Centralia boasts hundreds of antique dealers and dozens of factory outlets, and Tumwater offers many museums and art galleries.
