Chances are you’ve driven down South Temple and wondered what the giant stone sphinxes were guarding.

Here’s your chance to find out.

The Salt Lake Masonic Temple is now open for tours two days a week, allowing anyone who is interested an inside peek at the world of the Masons.

The temple has long hosted a yearly open house, but this will be the first time it has opened on a regular basis, said Ridgely Gilmour, president of the Masonic Temple Association. While many see the Masons as shrouded in mystery, Gilmour is encouraging the public to tour the temple and ask questions. Inquiry fits in with the temple’s main purpose.
