ARCHITECTS: Board of Church Architects
DEDICATION: September 23, 1945
TOTAL FLOOR AREA: 92,177 sq. ft.
OWNER: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
The temple in Idaho Falls was announced on March 3, 1937. The building was designed by the church board of temple architects: Edward O. Anderson, Georgious Y. Cannon, Ramm Hansen, John Fetzer, Hyrum Pope, Lorenzo Snow Young. The exterior of the temple was completed in September 1941 and the interior was expected to be completed the following year. However, with World War II shortages, it delayed the completion of the temple for four more years. In spite of delays, church president George Albert Smith dedicated the Idaho Falls Temple just one month after the war ended, on September 23, 1945. The temple was built on a 7-acre plot, has four ordinance rooms and nine sealing rooms, and has a total floor area of 92,177 square feet.
In March 2015, the temple closed for renovations that were expected to last 18 months. The renovations took nearly two years and following their completion, a public open house was held from April 22 through May 20, 2017. The temple was rededicated by Henry B. Eyring on June 4, 2017. -- Courtesy LDS and Wikipedia

LDS (Mormon) City Center Temple, Provo, Utah County, Utah. This historic building was completely gutted by fire when it was a Tabernacle but has now been completely restored and repurposed as a Temple. Check out the album showing progress from the fire to today here: www.flickr.com/photos/19779889@N00/sets/72157633284112982
Before leaving Kensington, we decided to drive up to the LDS Temple for a close up view. We did not go into the visitor center (another trip for sure) but did a walk around the beautiful grounds. We also want to go back when the grounds are lit up for Christmas.

Spending most of my time in the Missionary Training Center, my photo opportunities consist mainly of early morning walks around the beautiful Provo LDS Temple. I'm not complaining, though.
It is always an interesting challenge to capture a subject in mixed lighting, in this case; sunrise, building lights, and fountain.

You can tell how high the river is flowing by looking at the drop of the water at the far right side...only about a foot and a half. Normally the drop is three to four feet there.

Historic Temple Square, in downtown Salt Lake City, is one of the most visited places in Utah. Each year, more than 5 million people walk through one of four entrances to view a multicolored landscape and well-manicured lawns.The Salt Lake Temple was the fourth temple built in Utah (though its construction was started first) and the first built in the Salt Lake Valley.
The Salt Lake Temple was the only temple dedicated by President Wilford Woodruff.
With its distinctive spires and statue of the angel Moroni, the Salt Lake Temple is an international symbol of the Church.
The Salt Lake Temple is the largest temple (most square footage) of the Church.
Original plans for the Salt Lake Temple called for two angel Moroni statues—one on the east central spire and one on the west.
The Salt Lake Temple took 40 years to build with its highly ornate interior being completed in just a year.
The renovation continues on the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints Temple in Mesa, Arizona.
