It is the administrative center of the Canadian federal government, located in the capital city of Ottawa. The most famous of these is the Parliament Building on Capitol Hill, which is a symbol of the Canadian government and the center of national political activities. The Capitol Building consists of three Gothic buildings: the Peace Tower in the center, and the chambers of the House of Representatives and Senate on both sides. In addition to the Parliament Building, the Canadian government also owns other office buildings located throughout the country for the operation of different government departments. These buildings not only carry the administrative functions of the government, but are also an important part of Canadian history and culture.
