15 Best Things To Do in Salt Lake City, Utah
Utah’s capital city and the Mormon religious center, Salt Lake City, is a hub of multidimensional activities, ranging from outdoor adventures, such as hiking and biking, to fine dining and shopping in one of the city’s many boutiques and shopping malls.
Moreover, Salt Lake City gained a ton of media attention when the Olympic Winter Games were hosted there. Today, it’s popular for the nearby ski resort, mountain ranges, and religious attractions, such as Temple Square, which is a 35-acre land housing for buildings sacred to Mormons; Assembly Hall, Temple Annex, The Mormon Temple, and the Mormon Tabernacle.
