More information on the São Paulo Brazil Temple is coming soon.

The Washington DC Temple is a very special, symbolic temple.  It's quite different from other temples.  There are many unique features.  It's a six-spire temple with the tallest gold spire rising to 288-feet, which makes it the tallest LDS temple.  The spires are all different heights.  The six spires are thought to represent the Melchizedek (eastern spires) and Aaronic Preisthoods (western spires). The tallest spire features an angel Moroni statue holding gold plates.  The uncommon statue is only featured on four other temples.

Afraid of the rain?  Don't be.  Seattle has plenty of days with beautiful, sunny weather.  When it is raining, a lot of times it can be classified as a drizzle and not a pelting wall of cold rain.  Besides, you'll be so caught up in the changing landscape, you won't even notice the drizzle.  It's all about the water and the mountains.  There's pleny of islands that can be reached in under an hour that make you feel like you're world's away.  If you're in the city, you can see the mountains (and maybe even a volcano) in the distance.

More information on the Tokyo Japan Temple is coming soon.
