The atmosphere of the temple grounds and the temple itself were very well designed. You can feel a peaceful spirit and calm once you enter the temple grounds. You get a feeling that this place holds a sacredness to those who worship here. Highly recommend visiting.

It is such a beautiful building with a calm peaceful feeling. I love the renovations to the grounds and all the surrounding areas. It was fun walking the grounds and seeing all the thought and work that went into it. I can’t wait for Temple lights and the Easter pageant.

Very peaceful beautiful grounds. So much architecture you could look for hours and still not notice every detail.

Beautiful building! Beautiful grounds! We really enjoyed our visit to this historic site. The recent renovations have made it even easier to park and get around. The surrounding neighborhood has much to offer. Don’t forget to get an ice cream next door to the bookstore!

This iconic temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was built using early 20th century manpower and tools. Yet it is of the finest workmanship that can be found. To be on the grounds and in the midst of the sacredness it represents is humbling and awe-inspiring.
RL: Incredible building that inspires peace.

A real architectural beauty. The new visitor center feels like a children’s museum! Our family had a wonderful experience.

The new visitor’s center is fun and interactive. There are lots of hands-on things for the kids to do. They can color on the color wall, play with light displays, watch videos and more. The massive computer lab for genealogy work is neat too.

Beautiful grounds , peaceful place . I enjoyed the Visitor center which is about a block from the Temple. Really nice for anyone even if you don’t belong to the church you can find information about your ancestry. The kindness board is also a great motivation for kindness acts of service.
