About Salt Lake City

Salt Lake City is the cultural and political center of Utah. With a metro area of 1 million residents, Salt Lake is Utah's most populous city by a significant amount, yet remains remarkably pleasant and livable. It has plenty of cultural offerings, numerous parks and some inspiring buildings, including the splendid structures of the Mormon Temple Square.

Salt Lake City sits very attractively in a valley beneath the Wasatch Mountains. The mountains provide a wonderful backdrop and a variety of great recreational opportunities. In winter piles of dry snow smother the Wasatch providing excellent downhill skiing at 7 large resorts within 45 minutes of downtown. In summer, there is good hiking and mountain biking.

It supports professional groups such as the Utah Symphony, Ballet West, two modern dance companies and Utah Opera Company. Salt Lake is also home of the NBA's Utah Jazz and the Buzz Baseball Team. An international film festival, the Sundance Film Festival, takes place annually in Park City, and several major arts and entertainment festivals are annual local traditions. Utah's museums of Fine Arts and Natural History are located on campus, as is the state's arboretum and gardens.

                             

Salt Lake City is located in north central Utah along I-15 and I-80. It is part of the Wasatch Front, the name given to the string of cities and suburbs that forms a continuous urban area along the Wasatch Mountains from Ogden to Provo.
