    I am a local and we all know to watch during the Christmas season for the amazing lights at the Joseph Smith memorial to be hung. If you have someone from out of town with you, you will be glad you...

    This is a great place for anyone, regardless of their faith tradition. You can feel a special spirit here. The 38.5 ft tall obelisk is a dominant tribute to Joseph Smith. If you have time, climb up Patriarchs hill and overlook the monument and surrounding valley. If you can, plan a trip here in the fall so you can enjoy the beautiful leaves!
  • By Christopher Stapley
    Tour guides are amazing. The location and facilities are immaculate. The tour is inspirational and educational. Anyone that is curious about the origin of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints should spend an hour here.
