Natural History Museum of Utah
Salt Lake City, USA


The Natural History Museum of Utah is an architectural marvel located at the foot of the Wasatch Mountains, featuring a striking design that blends into its natural surroundings. Opened in 2011, the building showcases the rich geological, archaeological, and biological history of the state, with exhibits ranging from ancient dinosaur fossils to Native American artifacts.
Plan for a few hours to explore the museum's extensive collections, including interactive displays and a well-curated gift shop. The adjacent Red Butte Garden offers a lovely spot for a stroll, and spring is especially beautiful when the flowers are in bloom. The museum can be busy on weekends, so consider a weekday visit for a quieter experience.

“I participated in the tour on a Sunday, but many of the attractions were closed. Even if I wanted to stop at one, I would have to wait 90 minutes for the bus to return instead of the advertised 45 minutes. Consequently, no one else got off at any stops. I had intended to join on Saturday, but due to street closures, I was rescheduled to Sunday, unaware that most places would be closed.”— Evonne_B on the Salt Lake City hop-on, hop-off bus tour tour
