From our trip to Utah last summer. Taken with an HTC One (M7). Unedited. I learned that this temple took 40 years to complete, and was built without any modern machinery using men, animals, and block and tackle technology. Every granite block was carved by hand. Enjoy!

Lol looks like Volkrik had the same idea as me.
Many people look up to religious institutions, and the buildings that house them as well. This includes Mormons, who not only build large temples worldwide but also purposely build them in visible locations, especially on top of hills or mountains. While I do not ascribe myself to any religious belief, I can still enjoy the architecture.

This is the Manti temple in Manti, Utah. I took the photo on my Oneplus One running CM12 Nightlies and using the Zoom FX camera app. Edited in Google+ photos
