The story of Salt Lake City’s settlement and growth is written in the historic buildings of its downtown. The Historic Downtown Walking Tour Guide offers five self guided walking tours exploring over 100 years of history and architecture in Salt Lake City.

At each location, there is an information plaque with information about the building or area.

Get some exercise while discovering the architecture of an historic neighborhood. Pick up one of Utah Heritage Foundation's self-guided walking tour brochures for downtown Salt Lake City, South Temple Street, or Capitol Hill. Or download our Gateway Warehouse District audiotour to your mp3-capable device.

Utah Heritage Foundation's self-guided walking tour brochures contain maps, photos, descriptions of history and architecture -- everything you need to explore one of Salt Lake City's historic neighborhoods.

This tour is the Time Travel on Main Street (Kids Tour). Your walk through Main Street’s history will take about 40 minutes. The tour ends at 200 South. You can ride the light rail or a free bus to return to the starting point at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building.
