The International Peace Gardens are one of Salt Lake City's most famed attractions, originally conceived in 1939 as an addition to the city's beautiful Jordan Park. Today, the gardens are overseen by the Salt Lake Council of Women's Past Presidents Council, located along 11 scenic acres of the Jordan River in the city's downtown district. Since 1952, 28 national gardens at the park have honored the city's diverse populations, with separate sections landscaped to represent regional immigrants from Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Landscaping honors the concepts of democracy, brotherly love, and world peace, serving as an ideal for all visitors to be inspired to improve community relations. Visitors can stroll through the lovely gardens each day during daylight hours between May and September.
