The Utah State Capitol is the center of government for the state of Utah. It sits on a former munitions storage area once called Arsenal Hill (now Capitol Hill). The land was donated by Salt Lake City to the state in 1888 for the purpose of building the capitol, but construction didn’t begin until 1912. The building was completed in 1916.

Our stop in Provo ended up being shorter than planned due to lack of time. We skipped the museums but we were able to see the downtown and the major sites.
