Today, Salt Lake City is home to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. According to government data, currently 78% of the city's population is adherents of the Mormon religion, being 60% in the state of Utah.

Tourism
For a long time Salt Lake City moved with our imagination without there being a special reason for that, in addition to its own name - the Salt Lake City. What lake would that be, that in addition to salty served to name a city?
The city is one of the most sought after in the country when the subject is winter sports. It is the capital of the Mormon religion. In practice, Salt Lake is for this religion what Rome is for Catholics. It was the Mormons who, fleeing religious persecution, came here, founded the city and practically erected everything that we find here today. Streets, temples, attractions, cinemas, references, work, practically everything in Salt Lake refers to Mormons. Salt Lake is a beautiful place, clean, and that knows how to receive its visitors very well.
Dominating the entire city, on top of a hill is the State Capitol building (state congress), just behind the statue of the Indian chief Massasoit, there placed to pay homage to the first inhabitants of the state. It is impossible not to notice that, taking out the snow, almost everything that happens in Salt Lake is related to this religion.
Those interested in the Mormon religion should also visit the Museum of Church and History, which makes use of various resources to illustrate and inform the history of the so-called 'Restoration', and its spiritual and cultural legacy. Then go to the Pioneer Memorial Museum, where there are clothes, furniture, photos, toys and a whole series of personal items that show what life was like for the first settlers in Utah.
