The Anderson Family Solar System Walk locate at Thanksgiving Point Gardens - Lehi, Utah. The display is one of the special feathers in the massive 55 acre garden. This display of our solar system is done in two different scales. The diameter scale: 1" = 2,873 miles (To demonstrate size of the planets in relation to the sun.)
The distance scale: 1' = 10,333,333 miles (To demonstrate distance between the planets.)
The solar system walk is not far from the main building of the garden entrance. As you enter the garden keep to the left on the pathway until you see the yellow sun arch. You can follow the display down the grassy hillside to an intersecting path. We hope you enjoy your visit to the gardens and the Anderson Family Solar System Walk.
