Lansing, State capital in Michigan, United States.
The city spans across three counties - Ingham, Eaton, and Clinton - and sits at an elevation of 262 meters above sea level.
Michigan's state government selected Lansing as the capital city in 1847, leading to rapid development from an isolated settlement into an urban center.
The Michigan State Capitol building displays 19th-century architecture and contains nine acres of hand-painted surfaces within its decorative interior.
The Capital Area Transportation Authority operates 33 bus routes throughout the metropolitan area, connecting residents to commercial and educational districts.
The Michigan State University maintains a collection of cyclotrons, which includes the most powerful research accelerator in North America.
