About 125,000 people.

Topeka is the capital of Kansas, which means the state government works here. Its shiny domed capitol building can be seen from far away.
You can climb to the top of the capitol dome, meet tigers at the Topeka Zoo, or ride the historic carousel at Gage Park.
Leaders make the state's laws inside the beautiful capitol, and you can tour its painted halls.
A famous court case about fair schools, Brown v. Board, is remembered at a special site here.
