St. Peter & Paul Orthodox Church

With my recent find of the Cathedral of the Madeleine, I started out on an adventure to uncover other religious treasures located in Salt Lake City. Just 3 blocks South East of the epicenter of downtown is a small hidden masterpiece. Walking through the doors of the chapel you come across a painted blue sky surround with beautiful icons reminiscent of the byzantine era.

The Cathedral of the Madeleine

  

Located in downtown Salt Lake is a stone Cathedral with massive gargoyles. When one walks through the doors they stumble across an overlooked treasure in the community. The interior is exquisitely painted with rich colors and massive murals.

 If you haven't experienced the joy of Benja's Thai & Sushi located in St. George, it is definitely not too late. Now you can explore the same great experience at their second location called Benja's Thai Gardens.
