Parking and Public Transportation at the Salt Lake Temple
If you are not going inside the temple, the best place to park is in the underground garage at 1 across the street to the south. If you are going inside the temple, there is an underground lot just north of Temple Square and west of the 1 specifically for that purpose. There are plenty of public transportation options as well. Visitors can ride UTA buses or the UTA TRAX light-rail system and get off at multiple stops around the temple.

Best and Worst Time to go to the Salt Lake Temple
If you are a photographer and interested in getting an iconic picture of the temple, the best time to go is after dark when the temple lights are on display. Christmastime is also a great time to see the temple surrounded by the square bathed in Christmas lights. Christmas Eve can be a particularly busy time to go, though, so avoid that day if possible.

Admission to the Salt Lake Temple
As mentioned above, only worthy members of the Mormon faith are allowed to enter the temple. Those members are allowed inside for free and take part in sacred ceremonies such as marriage and baptism.
