Temple Square Visitors' Center
A natural starting point for many guests, the Temple Square Visitors’ Center helps people of all backgrounds understand what temples are and why they matter. Here, visitors can learn about Jesus Christ, God’s plan for His children, and the role temples play in helping individuals and families draw closer to Him.
Exhibits, artwork, and presentations offer opportunities to ask questions, reflect, and discover how temple teachings connect to everyday life.
Featured in the lower level of the visitors’ center, the Inside a Temple Tour provides a unique opportunity to see temple interiors—rooms not open to the public once a temple is dedicated. This walking tour explains what happens inside a house of the Lord and why Latter-day Saints highly value temple worship.
