Salt Lake City, Utah

Population: 181,743

The host of the 2002 Winter Olympic Games, Salt Lake City sits at the base of the Wasatch Mountains near numerous resorts where visitors and residents flock to ski "The Greatest Snow on Earth." Salt Lake's attractive downtown is a mixture of high rises and historical buildings, such as the Salt Lake LDS Temple and the Cathedral of the Madeleine. Downtown's Temple Square is arguably Utah's top tourist attraction and one of the nation's largest parades, the Days of '47 Parade, is the capstone of the city's nearby July 24th Pioneer Days celebration. Offering a startling variety of unique sights and opportunities, Salt Lake City's cultural scene is a mixture of pioneer heritage and first-class winter sports.
