2. Conference Center (Church of Latter Day Saints)

DOWNTOWN.   This imposing conference center, located just north of Temple Square, is a magnificent addition to Salt Lake City's skyline. The granite structure, with its terraced exterior and rooftop gardens, boasts a waterfall cascading down the building's façade. The main attraction in the complex is its 21,000-seat auditorium, which features an enormous pipe organ and a walnut pulpit. The entire complex is simply but richly furnished with art and sculpture depicting scenes from the Book of Mormon. A motif of the millennium star can be found throughout the space as well. Small group tours are free but do require the accompaniment of a guide.   (© 10Best)
