Fantastic

Visiting temple square is an awesome experience regardless of religious belief. It is an inspiration to see what dedicated american pioneers accomplished. The buildings are very ornate and stand strong showing the commitment and dedication these people put into their work. The tour helped me understand the how the city and state were begun, and some insight into what the mormons beleive. The religious info. was by no means preaching but more an explanation of why those beliefs inspired the people to work the way they did. I also learned how helpful the mormons are in researching my family history. I'm very glad I took the time to pull off the I-15 and find out what makes Utah what it is.
Heavenly

I love it. It is probably one of the most beautifully kept property I have ever seen. I love it at Christmas with all of the lights. It is amazing to see little flowers peeking up through the snow. I thought I was seeing things but no they were real. I really feel that it is as close to heaven as I am ever going to get. The protestors are a little overwhelming. I didn't appreciate what they were doing but once inside the walls of Temple Square you don't even notice them.
- Pros: Beautiful, Peacefull, Nice Staff
Absolutely beautiful

I've always thought Temple Square is beautiful in summer. I saw it last December for the first time at Christmas and was blown away by the beauty.
The missionaries are always well-informed, friendly and helpful. I'm not LDS, and I've never felt pressured in any way by the missionaries -- you give respect, you get respect.
