Beautiful temple! If you are ever feeling stressed or down just come here, bring a journal and journal. Come to the lord with your thoughts and feelings and he will answer you. Whether you are lds or not, you come here, just still think and feel peace, walk the grounds and enjoy the moment youre in, or if you are having a hard one and its hard to feel or understand the lesson just pray. Know you are not alone

It is amazing what the old tabernacle has become. This is a great place to come and be quiet even if you are not going into the temple itself. Come and enjoy this little spot of peace and beauty in downtown Provo.

Beautiful temple along with the surrounding landscape. A fun place to go walk around with your family. The grounds are open to the public to do so. The historic building is one to admire. The interior is beautiful in every way.

I love this temple. The interior feels like a more modern version of the Manti temple. Not only that, but it is well planned for it's place in the middle of a city. As a note: it does have a bike rack in the underground parking garage.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Does the Temple have a cafeteria?

Gary Provost | Feb 8, 2019
Jonathon Fauver | Feb 9, 2019

Hi Gary, No, this temple does not have food service. So many great places to eat on the block though! Try any one of them (eats and sweets and treats); I've not been disappointed. If you enjoy, celestial, temple food, try The Provo Temple. Also, BYU campus has many food opportunities, but as i said before, there are oh soo many choices, in every flavor and variety; within a hop, skip, and jump...

Is there a visitors center

Suzie Womack | Feb 8, 2019
Jim Lohse | Feb 9, 2019

Yes but you can't go into the actual temple (unless you're a temple recommend carrying Mormon but then you probably wouldn't ask :) you can also get a free book of mormon in the separate area. In Spanish Fork is the Krishna Temple that the Mormon church helped to build, there I believe you can get a full tour and some nice ethnic food at the end of the tour. (see their website)

Is the temple grounds close?? I’d always wanted to take photos within temple grounds but I’m not sure if the public is allowed because there are signs in main entrance everywhere

Samoan Perks | Dec 9, 2020
Olivia Gruwell | Dec 10, 2020

The grounds are closed right now. I did see security allow a mom and her son in to take pictures a couple months ago (during the summer). So maybe ask security while you're there if there's any way you could. :) Good luck!

We are coming for a sealing Tuesday afternoon. Is there a wheel chair available? Or do we need to bring our own?

Maurine McLean | Sep 10, 2020
Bill | Sep 11, 2020

We did not require a wheel chair, however I did observe one parked in a room as you enter. Be aware you'll park in the underground parking lot, and enter through the underground entrance. You can call and they will advise on the wheel chair.

Uhm hello can I as orthodox chirstian come and visit the temple one day?

Omega 2 | Aug 11, 2020
Joshua Matthews | Aug 12, 2020

You're welcome to visit the grounds when they open back up, and there's a beautiful visitor's center with a life-size statue of the Christus, but entry is limited to faithful members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who live up to its precepts.
