About Salt Lake City
Salt Lake City is Utah's capital, set between the Great Salt Lake and the Wasatch Range, with a grand temple square and ski slopes close by.
Salt Lake City lies in a high valley between the Great Salt Lake and the Wasatch Range. Mormon pioneers led by Brigham Young founded it in 1847. Temple Square, the heart of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, is its centre, with the granite temple and the domed Tabernacle, home of a famous organ and choir. The Utah State Capitol stands on a hill to the north.
