North America is often not considered a region filled with a rich religious landscape. While a growing literature highlights North America’s unique religious landscape, this chapter explores Salt Lake City, Utah, as a holy city in the same vein as Jerusalem, Mecca, Varanasi, the Vatican, Lourdes, and Kyoto. Salt Lake City was established in 1847 by leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and patterned after the Plat of Zion plan outlined by its founder, Joseph Smith Jr., which focussed on creating a City of Zion on the North American continent. Salt Lake City’s religious foundations, reputation as the axis mundi or the headquarters of the Church, and role as a pilgrimage and religious tourism destination for millions of people make the city akin to other holy cities.
