Salt Lake City Flights - OnlineTravelComparison
Salt Lake City, the largest city in the state of Utah, is best known for its prime skiing and for its connections to the Church of Latter Day Saints, but there´s much more to this diverse city, including fine dining, arts and entertainment. Exploring outside the city requires a car, but the downtown area is serviced by an extensive public transportation system.
Notable Salt Lake Museums include the Utah Museum of Fine Arts, the Church History Museum and the Utah Museum of Natural History. The famous Mormon Tabernacle Choir performs weekly and several theaters regularly host Broadway shows. Salt Lake City is home to many large annual festivals like the Days of ´47 Parade, the Utah Arts Festival and portions of the Sundance Film Festival. It also played host to the 2002 Winter Olympics. Many of the facilities built for the games are still used for training and open to the public.
Mountain sports are plentiful in Salt Lake City. Resorts like Snowbird and Deer Valley offer first-class skiing and snowboarding in winter, and hiking, biking and rock-climbing in summer, making Salt Lake City a great destination any time of year.
