Beautiful grounds! I have a 6 month old, so I walked around outside with her while my husband went in and then we switched. It looked like several other families were doing the same thing. ❤

I love this temple. It was a place of joy, refuge, peace, and restoration at a time when the temple closest to me was not available.

The temple is always amazing! We always take as many kids as we can even if they can't do ordinance work yet it's good for them to feel the calm and peace the temple can bring into your life.

Beautiful sacred building with incredibly kept grounds. Great place to escape the world and focus your thoughts on those things of a spiritual nature. While you must possess a current temple recommend (LDS Church version of pass showing you meet the religious and spiritual requirements) to enter the building, everyone is welcome to walk the temple grounds and enjoy the serene beauty. Parking is free and plentiful. Excellent place to reflect on life and the eternities.

Is there public transport from downtown Boston?

David Knell | Jun 25, 2022
Chelsea Mortensen | Jun 25, 2022

You can take the red line to Alewife station and catch the 62/76 bus from there. The bus doesn't come super regularly though so it's important to check schedules beforehand. The nearest bus stop is also a few minutes walk from the temple.

the statue at the top is gold?

jurandir santo | Aug 24, 2021
Aaron Geisel | Aug 24, 2021

The statues on modern temples are typically fiberglass covered in gold leaf. The statue also conceals a lightning rod.

Hotel near the temple?

Laura Pombonyo | Aug 24, 2020
Laurie Hendrix | Aug 24, 2020

The closest hotels I use are the ones in Waltham, the Embassy Suites, the Hampton Inn, or the Fairfield Inn ... all about 5 miles away. You can check the Boston Temple Guest House in Acton, too!

Do I need to make an appointment to do Baptisms for the dead (my family) on Wed., 9/19 morning? I will be proxy for them.(abt 5 names) Also, do I need to make an appointment to do sealings on 9/20 AM (1 marriage and 1 child sealed to parents).

Roz Smith | Aug 25, 2019
Laurie Hendrix | Aug 25, 2019

It helps to make an appointment, but there is family time for baptisms. Sealings begin near 9:30 am. The Temple will help whenever you get there, but it is easier with an appointment.
