During your Salt Lake City vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
International Peace Gardens
Begun in 1939 by the Salt Lake Council of Women, the Peace Gardens have expanded over the years and now belong to the city. Take a stroll along the Jordan River, through the many gardens and past statuary and displays representing different countries; benches are scattered about for moments of rest and contemplation. Allow about 1 hour.
Family History Library
This incredible facility contains what is probably the world's largest collection of genealogical records under one roof. The growing collection is composed of a substantial number of records from around the United States, fairly comprehensive data from Scotland and England, and information from many other countries. Most of the records, which date from about 1550 to 1920, are from governments, various churches and other organizations, and individuals.The Mormons created such a huge genealogical library because they believe that families are united for eternity through marriage and other sacred ordinances given in the temples. These ordinances, such as baptism ceremonies, can be done on behalf of ancestors -- hence the interest in tracing all deceased family members.When you enter the library, help is available to assist with your research. There are forms you can fill out with any and all data you already know (so come prepared with copies of whatever you have), and you will be directed from there. An orientation is given to newcomers and includes a handout and a map of the library. Volunteers are stationed around the library to help with anything you need.Some of the records are in books, and many have been converted to microfilm, microfiche, and computer files. The volunteers will show you how to use any unfamiliar machines. One of the easiest ways to begin a search is to start with the place where your ancestors lived, because records are organized first by the geographical origin. From there, you can spend hours immersed in discovering the whos, whats, wheres, and whys of your family history -- we know, we did it!
Gallivan Center
Some call this Salt Lake City's outdoor living room. You'll find intimate spaces, performances, food, all kinds of characters and activities, and good vantage points for watching the goings-on. Wander through the large art exhibit and the gigantic outdoor chessboard with waist-high pieces, and enjoy the pond, amphitheater, outdoor ice skating rink (call for hours and rates), and aviary. Allow 30 minutes.
Saltair Bed & Breakfast
Established in 1980, the Saltair is one of the oldest continuously operating B&Bs in Utah, although the building itself is quite a bit older. Now listed on the National Historic Register, it was constructed in 1903 and housed Salt Lake City's Italian Consulate in the early part of the century. Named for a resort built on the Great Salt Lake in the late 1800s, this inn boasts an enormous collection of Saltair memorabilia, from humorous postcards to knickknacks of all kinds. Units vary in size and specifics, from standard rooms to suites to cottages to a fully equipped bungalow. The cottages and bungalow are especially good for those traveling with children. All units are comfortably furnished with an eclectic variety of antiques, and goose-down comforters grace each bed. Some bathrooms have showers only, others have shower/tub combos, and one has a whirlpool tub for two. Several units have fully equipped kitchens.
The Armstrong Mansion Bed & Breakfast
This stately red-brick mansion exudes an atmosphere of splendor and luxury. The B&B is an opulent Queen Anne-style Victorian home decorated with antiques and reproductions. It features such architectural delights as stained-glass windows and an intricately carved oak staircase. The four-story mansion, built in 1893 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, was renovated in 1994 and now has an elevator. The stencils on the walls are reproductions of the mansion's original decorative patterns, discovered during renovation. A variety of rooms are available; most have queen-size beds though a few have kings. Most units have whirlpool tubs. The full all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet -- served between 7:30 and 10am -- consists of a hot dish, breads, and a variety of fruits.
International Ute Hostel
Located in a safe residential neighborhood, this hostel offers bunk beds in three dorm rooms, plus two private rooms (each with one queen bed). It's just a short walk to the Traxx light-rail line, which provides easy access to downtown attractions. As you would expect, everyone shares bathrooms and showers. Facilities include a fully equipped kitchen with free beverages, and lounges with cable TV. Particularly popular with international students, the hostel is unusually clean and provides free linen, tea and coffee, and safe deposit boxes. Complimentary pick-up at the airport, train and bus depots, or information center is available, as is free off-street parking. Inexpensive bike, ski, skate, and golf rentals can be arranged. Smoking is not permitted.
