Dominated by a magnificent six-spired temple, the square is the symbolic heart of the worldwide Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-Day Saints.
Short, informative tours are offered every few minutes in different languages and I highly recommend taking one. In addition to walking through the beautiful grounds with lovely flower beds, great architecture and art, we were able to enter the Tabernacle and listen to an organ concert.

Home to the world-famous Mormon Tabernacle Choir and the Tabernacle Organ.
We attended the weekly Sunday morning service of the Music and the Word, where believers of all faiths are warmly welcomed to immerse themselves in the glorious and inspiring music of the Tabernacle Choir & Orchestra. What a fabulous way to spend 30 minutes on a Sunday morning! Do not miss this!

The original granite temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
The Salt Lake Temple is a very special and beautiful place. The building is magnificent, and its history is fascinating. It was built by pioneers who had been driven out of the United States and established their home in the desert valley of the Rocky Mountains. The massive stones for the building were cut from a granite quarry in the canyons and hauled by ox cart. What an amazing feat. The grounds are always beautiful, and the Christmas lights are spectacular! However, I think the best feature of this place is the sweet peaceful feeling that rests on you when you enter. The temple and the grounds are expected to be closed for four year for refurbishment.

The staff/docents were welcoming, accommodating, informative, and warmly received us. The architecture is gorgeous, particularly the stained glass. Would love to hear the huge pipe organ sometime!
