🌈Features of the attraction: Have you ever heard of Mormonism? In Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, there is a mysterious and majestic high-profile building, which is the headquarters of the Mormon Church and one of the few check-in spots in the area. It is said that the main body of the church, completed in 1893, took 40 years to finish. The decoration of the entire cathedral reflects symbolism everywhere. Symbolism is a very important part of the Mormon faith. For example, the church faces Jerusalem; the six spires symbolize the power of the priesthood; the all-seeing eye on the arch represents God watching over everything... If you are interested in architecture and theology, you can leave me a message, and I will write a separate article about the architecture when I have time. It's quite difficult to take good photos here because the building is so tall, and there isn't enough space in front of the square, making it hard to capture both people and the entire building in one frame. Although Mormonism is relatively less heard of in our country and is indeed niche, it is the fourth largest religious group in the United States. And it is said that more than 60% of the residents in Salt Lake City are Mormons. 🎟️Ticket information: Currently under renovation 🕐️Opening hours: Under renovation 💗Other tips: If you are driving in the western United States, it is convenient to pass through Salt Lake City when going from Page to Yellowstone Park. Just stop by and visit, as it's hard to see such a place elsewhere. There is also a shopping mall within walking distance.
