Arts & Culture
Located in the heart of the city, Temple Square is home to the Latter Day Saints origin. There are several tours of the complex and if you happen to be downtown it’s worth it to walk through. Inside the square is typically beautifully landscaped. The architecture of all the buildings is also worth seeing.

Parks & Nature
If you love hiking, there are some great trails in Big Cottonwood Canyon just a few miles from our house. If you plan on hiking while staying in Salt Lake, I recommend downloading the app “All Trails.” It gives you a synopsis of local trails including difficulty rating, reviews, trail map, and photos.
