Top 10 Things To Do, Activities and Attractions in Park City

"The Salt Lake City Plaza Hotel represents an excellent lodging choice for tourists and business travelers alike. Located immediately at Temple Square, this hotel offers minimized walking distances to the Square itself, as well as the Family Research Library, LDS Conference Center, and Salt Palace Convention Center. Within the hotel, all of its guest rooms boast handsome d--cor accented with overtones of classic European style."

"(My favorite pizza place in the whole city – you must try the pizza with the buffalo mozzarella.) Then rent some SLC Green Bikes and bike over to Temple Square. I like to go here for lunch because it can get crazy busy for dinner and reservations are not accepted. Don’t forget to stop over for some gelato next door. Also, if it is winter, you really do not want to bike."

"Red Butte Garden and Arboretum contain a botanical garden, arboretum, and an amphitheater. Located in the foothills of the Wasatch Range, this scenic botanic garden spreads over 100 acres. Therefore, it is filled with exciting trails for hikers, joggers, and walkers."

"The State Capitol is found, perhaps unsurprisingly, on Capitol Hill, and is the symbol of the state of Utah. The building is 300 feet above the rest of the city, which means that it can be seen from many different vantage points, and is designed in the Neo-Classical style. The building is topped with a dome and the inside of the capitol is furnished with marble."

"Set 300 feet above the city at the north end of State Street, on Capitol Hill, is the Utah State Capitol. This towering, neoclassical, domed building houses the House of Representatives, Senate, and Supreme Court of Utah. The interior is known for its marble rotunda, the Golden Room (the Governor's reception room), and a small gallery with changing exhibits."

"The famous Mormon Tabernacle Choir performs every Sunday morning (usually in the Tabernacle) free of charge at 9:30 am. (You must be in the seats at 9:15 and we suggest getting there around 8:45.) Honestly, it is phenomenal. If you are not visiting Salt Lake on a Sunday, check out the schedule here. There are often free organ concerts or other events that are quite remarkable."

"Performing for more than 100 years, Mormon Tabernacle Choir or The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square is a part of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This is one of the top tourist attractions in Salt Lake City, so you can’t miss it. No, you don’t need to be religious to enjoy these mind-blowing melodies play by a group of talented people."

"The Mormon Temple is one of the most important religious buildings in Salt Lake City and was built in 1893. The building is impressive in style and stature, and is made of granite with three large signature towers at each end. The tallest tower, which is to the east of the building, features a statue covered in gilt which is modeled in the shape of an angel named Moroni who is significant in the Mormon faith."

"The Salt Lake Temple or the Mormon Temple is one of the iconic landmarks in the city. Located on Temple Square (explained above), this temple is designed and built in a unique Mormon style. So, it looks stunning."

"The Mormon Temple, also known as Salt Lake Temple, is an iconic landmark. It is the largest LDS temple on earth, spanning 10 acres and standing at 222 feet tall, taking about 40 years to complete."

"The charmingly named Beehive House was built in 1854 and is known for being the former home of Brigham Young, the leader of the Mormon faith and the previous Governor of Utah. Young lived in the residence alone with his 19 wives and 56 children and the home is designed with features of the Mormon faith in mind. One such feature is the turret of the house that has a beehive as a symbol of the industrious nature of those involved in the Mormon faith."

"The Beehive House was one of many owned by Mormon pioneer leader, Brigham Young. By visiting this thoroughly preserved home, you will get a glimpse into the life he shared with his family at the time he was president of the Mormon Church and territorial governor of Utah in 1854. The name "Beehive" was given to the home due to the beehive sculpture that sits atop the roof."

"The Beehive House, constructed in 1854, was the former official residence of the second LDS Church president Brigham Young. It gets its name from a beehive-shaped sculpture perched on the home."

"The cute neo-Gothic Assembly Hall hosts free daily organ recitals at noon, while the Mormon Tabernacle Choir rehearses on Thursday evenings at the domed Tabernacle. It shelters an 11,623-pipe organ and has acoustics so finely tuned you can hear a pin drop in the pulpit from the back of the hall."

"The last important building is the Assembly Hall, located at the southwest corner of the square. The exterior gives it the appearance of a Gothic cathedral, but the interior is not built in the Gothic style – which is a bit disappointing."

"The Episcopal congregation of Salt Lake dates back to 1858 - a rather impressive fact, given that Utah's first settlement occurred at the hands of Mormons just 11 years earlier. One of Utah's oldest standing non-Mormon churches and the third oldest Episcopal cathedral in the United States, the Church of St. Mark dates back to the 1870s - quite an unpleasant time for non-Mormons to live in Salt Lake City. Plans for construction were laid in 1858 but, due to the outbreak of the Civil War and insufficient funds, construction was not resumed until 1868, or completed until 1875."

"The State Capitol is found, perhaps unsurprisingly, on Capitol Hill, and is the symbol of the state of Utah.
