Major Attractions

Zion National Park

Red rock cliffs, waterfalls, and splendid vistas make up the scenery of Zion National Park. It is located around a three-hour drive from Las Vegas. A sightseeing bus also takes visitors through the park and stops at all major sites and trailheads. Self-driving routes such as the Zion-Mount Carmel Highway also allow visitors to take a drive in their vehicles and enjoy the incredible views of the valley from higher viewpoints. The hiking here is incredible!

Monument Valley

Stretching across the border of Utah and Arizona, Monument Valley has attracted hundreds of thousands of visitors throughout the years with its captivating scenery. Known for their giant sandstone formations, these towering monuments make for a sight that cannot be explained with mere words; you have to see it with your own eyes to believe it. These are just mountains, canyons, or big rocks, but something more special and unique.

For all the photography enthusiasts, there is Valley Drive, a one-way, seventeen-mile, self-drive dirt road where you will get plenty of opportunities to capture the raw beauty of this Valley. The Monument Valley Visitor Center also offers a beautiful view and is an excellent option for the ones who do not want to go for a drive. The center can also arrange guides for those who want to go deeper into the Valley to explore some of the less frequented parts of the Valley.

Temple Square in Salt Lake City

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints headquarters is in downtown Salt Lake City. While the main temple is not open to the general public, there are many buildings and exhibits that are. All visitors are welcome to sit and enjoy the Tabernacle Choir or visit the Genealogy Center to research your family history. This collection of information is the most extensive in the world. Many people come to the center to work at their leisure. Bev and her family love working on their genealogy here.

Some other notable places and attractions:

Utah’s Ski Resorts Park City
Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument
Dead Horse Point State Park
Dinosaur National Monument
