Three officials from Salt Lake City, all depicting Salt Lake Temple, a temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, popularly known as the Mormon Church.
Salt Lake Temple is the largest and most recognizableof all Latter-day Saint temples and is an international symbol of the church.
The massive granite, six-spire edifice was constructed in a neo-gothic style over the course of an astounding 40-year period between 1853 and 1893; the pioneers who settled the valley sacrificed both time and material goods to the building of the temple, which stands as a testament to their faith and devotion." - in: http://www.utah.com/mormon/salt_lake_temple.htm

Althought it is popular tourist attraction, like other Latter-day Saint temples, the church and its members consider it sacred and a temple recommend is required to enter, so there are no public tours inside the temple.
