Salt Lake City Tabernacle
Historical landmark
👍👍 This was quite the experience. First, it isn't easy finding a parking spot close as you have to find parking along the street. We walked in through the gates and to our right was an info desk. We were going to ask a question but there are teams of "sisters" on missionary status that give free tours....

😠 Went two times. First time was super rushed, and the person helping us did most of the work for us. What was supposed to be a 3 hour appointment turned into 1 hour. The ring turned out great though! Thought we would try it again, and big mistake. They overbooked for the time slot, so the person help...

🫤 This is the worst tourist trap you could fall into. This place although nice to walk around and enjoy the surroundings is engineered as a missionary playground weather you’re a member of the church or not expect to be stopped by missionaries and asked for referrals and questioned about your beliefs....
