You could easily spend a whole day—or several days—here. Temple Square is a wonderful place to visit. It is free, wheelchair accessible, and they give free tours and concerts. After Thanksgiving through New Years there are wonderful Christmas lights and Nativity scenes. in the spring till the fall there are beautiful flowers and gardens. You can also learn about a lot about the history of the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. There are tour guides for practically every language. You can also get a free map of Temple and surrounding downtown. There are several bathroom locations and multiple buildings on Temple Square.

There are several museums and two main visitor centers. The North Visitor Center has many paintings, a replica of Jerusalem from the time of Jesus Christ, a beautiful “Christus” statue, and some informative videos.

In the South Visitor Center there are more interactive videos and an accurate model of the Salt Lake Temple, outside and inside.

Nearby Temple Square there are many places to eat and shop. There is street parking but I would never park in metered parking in Salt Lake City. You can park in the Conference Center (10$ for the day) north of Temple Square or in the Curry Creek Mall parking (1st 2 hours free and $2 for every hour after that) of Temple Square. If you aren’t driving there are many buses that pass nearby and some light rail as well. Riding bus or train in the downtown area is free and part of a “Free Fair Zone.” Ask the bus driver or a local about it.
