Downtown was Salt Lake City. Every year, we would bundle up in warm winter clothes and go to Temple Square. This was one of my favorite traditions as a kid, one I intend to continue with my kids. We did go last year with Abby.
The lights at Temple Square are always amazing! They cover the flower beds and the trees. A huge nativity scene is in an open area, with narration telling about the birth of Jesus, and spotlights showing which scene to look at. Another favorite part of this trip was going to see the Christus. This beautiful statue shows Christ after the resurrection, spreading his arms to everyone. In the background is the heavens and Earth. There is a presentation to go with this statue at Christmas time. Sometimes, we also saw a short Christmas movie in the visitor's center. I think my entire family loved Christmas at Temple Square.
