Dueling piano bar - they are crazy talented, the crowd is always good looking and fun loving - most people who grew up in Utah grew up singing or playing an instrument, so when the drunken crowd sings along it doesn't sound half bad!

The original, iconic symbol of the religion that shaped this beautiful city! It is gorgeous, and the entire grounds are beautiful as well. During the Christmas season, all of the grounds are lit with lights that crowds flock to every year, and it's free. There are also horse-drawn carriages during Christmas, que romantique!

See the iconic salt flats, many movies have been shot here, many cars driven FAST, it's really a unique site. About a 45-60 minute drive from home. BRING SUNGLASSES because the sun is so bright, reflected off the white salt, and if you'll be there around sunset BRING BUG SPRAY.

Best place for dinner and a movie - at the same time. Awesome bar with great pizza and other eats, they have pool tables for you to enjoy whilst you wait for your movie, and there are tables during the movie to eat while you watch, as well as couches at the back (which I would never sit on out of pure principle).

A Fabulous art museum, always has an interesting exhibit that doesn't break the budget, and they have an entire upper floor dedicated to teaching kids and adults through the use of all of the senses, and most importantly the sense of play.
