Cardston

Cardston is a small town located south of Lethbridge, it takes just less than an hour to drive there. It's very small (as in really small - there doesn't seem to be a Tim Hortons if that's an indication for you) but interesting because of the temple there.
Cardston was founded by Mormon pioneers and one of the first things they did was build the temple (building began in 1913). The temple is right in the centre of the town and the rest of the town was built around it. It's impressive simply because it's just impossible to miss it - it's really big and up on a hill so when approaching Cardston from the highway it looks very picturesque with the Rockies in the background.
Being a church member, it's interesting for me to be close to somewhere with so much history and I also enjoy the fact that there are lots of members here in Lethbridge which made it easier for me to meet lots of new people.
The pictures show the temple during the day and how it's lit up at night (left) as well as the main entrance (right).
