We have loved exploring our hometown this month and have found a few hidden treasures we want to tell you about. We thought we knew it all living in Salt Lake City for 30 years, but we were so wrong!
First up, Tracy Aviary. It’s located inside Liberty Park in downtown Salt Lake City and is easily accessible. We went on a Monday afternoon and basically had the place to ourselves. Having not visited since 4th grade, we didn’t remember much. Well, we were so impressed! Tracy Aviary is truly a beautiful sanctuary for birds. With gorgeous trails and landscaping, you feel like you’re transported somewhere completely different. They have done a great job of making it educational and pretty. The bird shows are fantastic, I’ve heard adults and kids alike rave about them.
We were shocked by how much fun our toddlers had! They loved seeing all of the birds and playing in all of the different recreation areas. We will definitely be going back!
Next on the list of hidden gems is the Utah Museum of Fine Arts. It is located at the University of Utah and showcases amazing art work. We were impressed at the range of artists and styles and also everything they do to make the museum family friendly. You can check out a free family backpack when you arrive. It’s filled with fun, hands-on activities that make the museum come alive for kids.
Third on the list is the Lion House Pantry. Did you know lunch or dinner at Lion House Pantry is included in your CONNECT PASS? We hadn’t visited since our friend’s 8th birthday party, so it had been a while 🙂 One thing we have never forgotten is THE ROLLS! They are legendary for a reason and everyone in Utah should get the chance to try them.Â
