Las Vegas Nevada Temple


The Las Vegas Temple is one of the most beautiful temples that I have seen.  The word that came to my mind when I first saw the temple was "oasis".  In the midst of a vast desert, the landscape of the temple has a beautiful fountain, green grass and beautiful foliage.  The inside is equally as beautiful.  There is a beautiful sun symbol that is featured throughout the inside.  The celestial room has two beautiful chandeliers and is one of the bigger celestial rooms I've seen.

As I sat through the session I realized that the temple truly is an oasis.  Beyond it's physical landscaping and water feature, it is a spiritual oasis.  In a city that is known for gambling, alcohol and lewd behavior, there is an oasis where one can go to find peace and commune with God.  It truly is an oasis of truth in a desert filled with error, of light in a sea of darkness.  This beautiful temple is one that I will visit again.
