Our Take
Take a moment to marvel at the fact that this is an old (by American standards) and enormous marble temple in the middle of Utah’s high desert. It’s undeniably audacious when you take into consideration that it was built by pioneers who made a trek through the mountains to build it. It’s such a perfect piece of Utah history and culture and it says a lot about the people who populated the state. When you visit, you’ll find it in the middle of downtown Salt Lake City. It’s bustling and surrounded by a mall of sorts. It’s absolutely worth visiting, especially to see the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. They might have you fill something out so they can send you materials, but it’s worth it. Also, it’s a popular spot for weddings, so you’ll likely see a few going on. Remember to be respectful!
