The temple is the oldest of its kind outside of the United States. It is a beautiful piece of architecture worth visiting or even stopping off the highway. Surrounding the temple are sprawling gardens and fields leading you to Cardston’s Lions Park and Town Square. The whole area around the temple is a popular spot for picnics, field sports, or just lazing in the sun.
