Salt Lake Temple

Positioned on Salt Lake City's center block, known as Temple Square , the spires of the Salt Lake Temple rise amid downtown high-rises and super malls. Sharing the block are the North Visitors' Center and South Visitors' Center ; the Tabernacle , home of the famous Mormon Tabernacle Choir ; and the Gothic-style Assembly Hall . East of the temple is the masterfully landscaped Main Street Plaza, complete with reflecting pool.

Beyond the plaza is the Church's world headquarters, known as the Church Office Building , and the Joseph Smith Memorial Building -a multipurpose Church building, which has become a popular wedding event center. The Church's Conference Center , an architectural masterpiece, lies directly north of the temple. Every holiday season, Temple Square is transformed into a highly popular display of hundreds of thousands of Christmas lights.
