Salt Lake City Temple Tour
Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 тра 2019
- Salt Lake City Tour is a short video in which I personally explore Salt Lake City. A few spots I will visit include the Utah State Capital, the Mormon Temple, The Rio Grand train station, and the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. There were signs of a false historical narrative at every turn but I will let you decide. The whole city is filled with evidence of a mud flood submerging at least one level of what is an already very old and advanced tartarian architecture.
My initial reason for going to Salt Lake City was to buy flavored coffee syrups for the shop but I took full advantage of the opportunity to do some exploring and investigating. The Mormon Temple tour was great I just wish I would have had more time. My dog also enjoyed the investigation as dogs are natural investigators. Thanks for watching and thanks for all your amazing comments and support!
I do hope you enjoy!
God bless you all!!!

I could listen to this guy read the phone book
Thats soo funny 🤣🤣🤣🤣
So his voice sounds like am actor from Hollywood. He was the paranoid ex military guy in the movie RED. Cant remember his name. But this guys voice sounds just like him. And even the way he speaks is very alike to this guy.
I suspect JonLevi is secretly John Malkovich!! Every time i watch a video of JonLevi, in my mind i see John Malkovich! No joke! ;)

The Godless ...That would be too much of a big dose of red pill reality...
WhoKilled AlexeiRomanov ...thats the voice of Haldol...
It is so interesting how they could go from ox cart journey across the desert, then build these structures with primitive tools and then to today to owning the worlds family history records. It is as you say totally unbelievable!! Thank you Jon for another gem
gator8287 is it owning the worlds family history or writing it?
@@michelebline9211 both
@@michelebline9211 Likely both
@@gator8287 It is how the media monopoly still writes our history on daily base. True or fake we cannot tell because it is only one way communication (aka indoctrination & brainwash), no room for corrections from the public reading the daily newly created history tales.
gator8287 ...By this time they hsd modern tools...No electric. But steam had been around a while...Pioneers were super resilient , good carpenters, great stonemasons. And artisan cabinet makers and shipwrights did the interiors...Humans have always been adept...What one doesnt know, their brother does...look at what artisan craftsmen geniuses did with the St. Petersburg's Amber room....Astonishing.
Jon, You could organize us as teams in order to investigate and send you pictures from all around the world.

That is a wonderful idea, here’s one about 1 mile from where I live that’s supposedly was built 1890-1892 but I cannot find any construction photos. Old Olympia Capital building.

Here’s another ‘Union Station’ Tacoma WA about 25 min North of me. Looked for construction photos as well. The inside is MIND BLOWING

They should have some construction pics at:
www.trainmuseum.org/index.php/the-railroad-built-the-pacific-northwest
I agree!!
@@PacificNorthwest360 I've been saying the same thing and have been researching my entire state in light of jons influence and inspiration....i commented and posted a link of over 200 photos I've gathered on all counties in the state like county seat buildings and courthouses etc...ill share it here too.
5 days ago I landed in LONDON UK,
Coming from western Canada,
Reflecting on you old pictures and seeing UK buildings ,,looking very much The same,,
Knowing UK has 1000s yrs of history,
Its comparison is interesting , including the symbolism
I spent a great deal of my life as an LDS , Mormon . Just a fact of my history. We were encouraged to study the history of the “ pioneers “ they even celebrate Pioneer Day JULY 24 . I was always struck by how they would just need to work very hard on simply feeding themselves, in the high desert , finding water to drink, staying warm in the winter . It’s a harsh place . A few thousand people did all this ? The tabernacle built well before the temple is amazing inside . They say the interior columns are made of wood , because ; you are going to love the reason they give , there was not enough stone available! These “ wooden” columns are painted to appear as stone, why bother ? I think the rough blocks outside that you show were added later . I think the roof was beautifully cantilevered like a mushroom.
I was born in SLC. Your videos are making me see things in a new way, which is quite exciting. It's amazing how much can be concealed by leaving it in plain sight and constructing an appealing narrative.
I live in Southern Utah, my family has been here for 50 years. I was looking at the history of St. George and they ran water to houses in the open ditches until 1936. They had the drinking hour from 5am to 6am in the summer and 8am to 9am in winter. Animals would die in the ditch and poison the people. All originial people were sent from Salt Lake by the Mormon leadership to settle the area. My point is that they couldn't manage water they couldn't manage these buildings.
They say Brigham Young and a small group of his followers arrived at Salt Lake City in 1847. Many of them died along the way from starvation and the bitter cold.
According to that plaque, within 4 years they had successfully petitioned Congress to have the railroad pass through their city.
Those early Mormons were really on the ball back in 1848.
You wouldn't expect a group simply trying to survive to also be so politically active.
@@jeanyp.8704 the article is definitely a piece of fiction. I'm Aldo mad at myself for believing that crap and so many articles like that (I'm a reader and started young and loved reading about my country was bujlt; how they lived so primitively & simple in the early days of America. This line was where I stopped - "we stood in awe as the huge blocks were ..blag blag blah..by oxen and carts". Wow. TY for sharing. One lie at a time, one article at a time..they rewrote our history.
@@jeanyp.8704 liar.
The orignal orignizers,database,genealogy,nsa.
Huge state flag pole in front of a temple.
Would take a long time for a letter to get east, if it even made it at all, considering the harsh traveling conditions, and things such as savage native war parties, and roving bandits...🤷
Best chanel on youtube!
Most real
Thank you Jon for continually putting out fascinating content! Always looking forward to your next release!!!
Went ahead and gave the video a 👍 before I even watched it, already knowing it’s powerful as usual
I do the same for his and Rosette Delacroixs almost always. They never disappoint
One word always comes to my mind when you take us through these photographs and show us what we’ve all been missing... BUSTED. Our fake history has been busted 😂 Thank you for another wonderful and educational video!
Joseph Smith..sounds like the perfect name for a psy op.
I am researching because of your comment
I hear that there is a Joseph Smith but not the one they always show us!
Joseph Smith was the first person I know of to run for President on a anti-slavery campaign. Apparently murdered.
Been inside that Temple. Big all seeing eye painted on the entrance to Celestial room.
Decor super gaudy and over the top.
Yet when I or others in real need came for help after paying hundreds of thousands into system, were turned away and told we were greedy and lazy...lol
Would love for you to research Amelia's Mansion, BY built for his favorite wife while the other wives lived in squalor.
I was having a conversation with Friends about this topic and I asked them what they thought, how did a target small group of men, women and some cattle and lack of modern tools build up these amazing buildings in such a short amount of time. I turned one friend over to being a believer by showing him yours and FEB channels. Great video!
jason Shores there’s no denying it once you start piecing the puzzle together. Jon is helping us open our eyes to the truth. Maybe we kinda always questioned it but didn’t know how to express it. Jon was the catalyst we’ve all needed. We’re all becoming history detectives🧐
Good for you. So few will take the time to really listen, much less ponder it, research then accept.
I call your vids meals for the mind.
Giants really did beautiful work..!
Lol so true. Every time I see this kind of building and design, along with what is now apparently lost tech that went with it, is that story "The Smokey God" it fits so perfectly with what we see everywhere I still cant believe it.
Every large building in the town I reside in (in NE Indiana) was mud flooded. We have one of the grandest courthouses I've ever seen, as well as several other Roman-esque/Greek style buildings made with columns and marble and limestone blocks... VERY intricate. Too much so for a small Indiana farm town. I am going to walk around and get some new pictures. I would like to send you a few of the interesting ones
Whats the name of the town?
Thank you for checking in my friend 😎...it is ..a wonderful life
Pioneers in the 1800’s couldn’t even dream this big let alone build it.
I wonder what they thought of these buildings. Wonder what they told those folks when and who built them.
Barbi Button I'm wondering wether they had time to wonder just wondering 😂👍
Yet they did. And it only took 50 years
Your wrong! This happen and it took 40 years to build this Temple. Please do some research before believing this person. He is wrong in all sorts of ways.
@@MrJdavi68 Your only fooling yourself
I remember as a child, visiting my grandparents in Missouri. I remember seeing mud flood windows. There is heavy, dark ancient spirits (I didn’t understand at the time)that I could physically feel. I appreciate your work. Very timely.🌈🦄🙏🏽💟💟💟
There is definitely something going on in Salt Lake City!
More than likely, its all underground
Jon, I too have often wondered in my teenage years (I'm 48 now) and grew up in St. Louis Missouri where there are archetechturally ornate. St Louis has a bizarre history also. It's astonishing what little is left of the 1904 WF.
I now live in Tacoma and have lived in Seattle and Everett. Seattle even has an "Underground Seattle" tour. Back in the 1800's the city of Seattle slid into the Puget Sound and the buildings that remain are few but look totally mudflooded.
Great work my friend. Thoroughly enjoy your presentations.
Those original Mormons - the 150 men, 3 women, and 2 kids - were a well-oiled temple building machine! And there's a temple and tabernacle in ALL the older Utah cities! They were poppin' those buildings out like crazy!
Sure
I always thought it was weird that every state capital building looks the same or very similar.
Looks like the White House.
I thought it was t he white house
The U.S. is a freemasonic corporation founded in 1789 and not related to "The United States of America 1781." Once they took over they put all their Vatican Roman Empire buildings in each "state." Is there any evidence the Constitution applies to you or me? Did you sign it? If not then how do the codes apply including the tax code?
@@sonofabanker The constitution is not ours, its rules (minus unlimited contracting) do not apply to us. They are rules for the government. None of us signed it, and there are ways to get free of the oppressive contracts that the U.S. corporation have is under.
@@Ridd333 there may have been ways. I think it's evident, they are not letting us go anywhere. Except in a Crematory.
Incredible, beautiful photos; you have a good eye Jon. I'm truly grateful for your in-depth research and brilliant insight; I look forward to your every video my friend!
Anyone else ever kinda feel like you are being hypnotized sometimes? 🦄
great vid , thanks
just.... absolutely.... magnificent... wait, what was the question?
@@wheresmygun ha. first Time around i missed thee joke
" So they petitioned the government while still on the wagon trail"?
... Now .that;s f&%*g funny!
They arrived in SLC in 1847. They petitioned for the railroad 4 years later... so, nope. Sorry, not while they were on the pioneer trail.
However several thousand (70,000), Mormon settlers continued to come to the Salt lake valley for 20 years. So perhaps this is why you're confused.
@@denisefrandsen5106 We know you are a promoter of untruth.
Nice to see a video from you at 2AM in Ohio. Hope you are well bro. Great vibes to you😎
not Waren?
Youngstown
Thanks Jon for the interesting & fascinating insight to the past! Outstanding architecture, truly a wonder to behold!
Excellent as always. Your videos are a real treat. :) Thanks Jon!
I live your sarcasm, you are awesome. Keep the good videos going brother. I have learned a lot from your videos.
*What really needs attention is how was it even remotely possible to create and move metals for construction of buildings on wagon train.*
William Jones , you may find this a good read . www.mormonnewsroom.org/additional-resource/granite-and-faith-the-story-of-the-salt-lake-temple
The Star (s) maybe reference to Star Cities and Ports?
Nice display of mercury balls. It reminds me of electric circuits.
God bless you John Salt Lake City is one of my favorite 28 meters of mud and they have the pictures of it being dug out wonderful job John good to talk to you again
Once again you did it again I love your smart assness LOL😀😀😘
What a wonderful way to start off the day. Thanks for taking the time to show us these amazing examples of our mysterious past. Beautiful city. Pet Chief for me. Awesome dog!
Thanks my friend I will! God bless ;)
You should check out the CT state capital in hartford. It's wild and very intercity and lots of detail. Made around the same time too. Early, mid 1800s
That is an amazing building. Never been there, just looked at photos due to your comment. The statues, the detailing, the art, just because you know, we had money and the talent/workforce to burn on buildings like this as a brand new country..,
@@vincebelloni5086 I live pretty close to Hartford. I've been inside a couple of times. You can walk around in the main lobby part for free. They have a giant carved wooden angel in the center, it was made from the famous charter oak. It fell down in a storm so they made a bunch of cool shit from it. Like the governors desk ect. Very cool building.
The Ursa Major stars at 9:25 are very important in the Arcana of Freemasonry. Joseph Smith denied being a Mason, only attending some meetings ( Masonic) to get ideas on how to form and run the new church.. These buildings do tell a story, thanks again Jon!
Lol all high ranking Masons never admit to being involved in masonry especially ones that create their own religions.
I was by the temple today and they are doing construction and have dug around the building 15 to 20 feet and I swore I saw windows under the ground line. It looks like the temple goes way deeper than that too. If your in slc anytime soon you need to see it and make a video. What I saw proves your point
Im in SLC lets do a tour!!
I literally fall asleep listening to Jon's relaxing style every night. Doesn't matter which vid. Awesome.
The stars are the plough or big dipper ( massive significance) awesome vid again sir😆
Thx for this great tour!
Minute 9:26 looks like the star constellation "Ursa Major"
Yeah! I saw it steight away 👊🏼😎
In here (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_Ursae_Majoris) I just read about ظهر الدب الاكبر (the Big Bear is back) in which zahar sounds like Sahara and ak means the eye. The eye of the Sahara is maybe a clue?

Hey Jon ! Blessings to you keep up the good fight !
You would be amazed with how much looks like carved wood that is actually plaster/cement work. They used linen, wax, and sand to make molds. I used to have an antique mirror that I thought was csrved wood. It fell from the wall one day and I realized it was plaster work. I remember years ago watching a TV show where they were making moldings from plaster by filling a mold and then running a cut out shape all the way down basically peeling away the extra plaster and shaping it for the entire length.
I love your videos Jon. This one was excellent!
what a relaxing video...thank you~!
Jon Levi, thank you for your hard working putting these vids together for all to see. Your calming voice is very appealing to my ears. I enjoy the music you use during your vids, calming as well.
God bless you Jon Levi!! Grace, mercy and peace be with you and your fur person :)
Chief his name is chief.
Homerun vid tartarian overdose looks like they maintained the buildingsbetter than other states looks like that temple is mudflooded as well great work love your vids your my favorite of all the tartarian researchers
It's not that they were maintained better, these buildings have almost no finishing work done to their exteriors, there's loads of stuff missing because whomever was building them never got to finish them. That adds a further air of mystery :)
I loved the video . Thank you.
Jon, have you seen the new “construction” that’s going on at the Temple? I went not long ago and you could see they were digging really deep down! And there was still more of the building!! It was really interesting to see that the building continued downward despite it being previously “in the ground”
i live in slc and theyve now made it impossible to see any construction now
@@mysterese yeah I went about 2mos ago and could not see a thing
They’re covering it up from us
Thanks Jon for another video!!! Always look forward to your videos.
Those old mercury balls are found on most Tartarian buildings. Also they were used towards the top of those "flag poles". I see them in the most unlikely places. Just today, down at the local mud flood gathering. up the block is a restaurant. A restaurant in one of those old quant brick buildings with an large antenna with a mercury ball on top. Nobody see's this, nobody see's what I see. Are we the strange ones ???
I think the inside deco and Stuck is hardened fluid 3d prints of I don't know what synthetics
Same as for the columns
Elke Leonhardt - I toured all the buildings and a new temple that is more amazing than the pictures in this video. It's a paint glaze made from the local sand, lime and water. Nothing synthetic about it.
@@gizzardliz4576 yes, but it's more than that.
It is false that you can make concrete with powdered limestone, sand, gravel and water.
Mixing that will just make a muddy mess.
rebuildingcivilization.com/content/true-or-false-concrete-can-be-made-mixing-powdered-limestone-sand-gravel-and-water
What I mean by looking on the building he was talking about min... 19:00, that construction is more recent and not done before 1850, but when the cities were cleared of ppl.
What we asume is that most cities were inherited, already there.
I'm pointing out the data AND specifically the moment in absence of ppl that this specific building could have been constructed AND therefore used high advanced materials, which the hidden elite already know and have used in the past.
We are trapped in our own mind prison, that won't permit this sintetics, because out of time issues.
Look Newearth channel shows this.
This materials leave some bubbles or holes when the mixtures is not quite well done.
You'll find this in many antique pieces, sculptures, columns, vessels, EVERYWHERE.
Looked like ursa major on that side of the temple. On the sun/ moon side
Those metal round things @ 10 minute mark are added lights brother💪👍✌️
Lights they are, I went to look at pics of those tower tops being lit.
But added later or present from old times I don't know.
I read my grandmothers biography and it said the people in her small town I think was Logan Utah had to save money to build their first church.
Colleen Gillespie yes, the story I have heard is that the primary children saved all their pennies then donated the money to build these Tabernacles and church houses 🙄
@@MamaSea888 Although some of these buildings were here before the Mormons.
They pay and donate their co supplies to their wards churches.If you move to a new area you pay for that new church.Children pick weeds for the manti temple.
I lived in Salt Lake City back in the 70s. All the houses built with basements in the 70s.
ALL the houses are still built with basements. Needed for foundations concerning soil content. Also great for cool part of the home. As well double square footage without added cost..... 99percent of homes in Utah have a basement.
Doorknobs look like nimrods building to the heavens!
Jon you need a camera drone ... great vid as usual cheers!
moving images would destroy the chill/relax ambience those pictures got
@@decree72 I'm referring to being able to get up around the Spires etc ... yes it would be still shots also
Not just moons suns & stars, but the "starburst/eye-looking" design above the widows? Doors?
Check them out
I've been reading many of the accounts of the New Madrid Earthquakes from 1811-1812.
Talk about some fascinating stuff that links into everything we're exploring with new eyes.
Worth checking out.
Jon,
Absolute par for the course. As usual. Thank you.
those door handles were amazing... ad at 19:10 that looks like two opposing toroid fields, giving birth to two angels...
..or maybe 2 portals?
Just discovered your channel yesterday and I’ve been binge watching all your content. It’s amazing what you have found. I think I’ve watched over 10 of your episodes. We really have not been told anything true about our history and have covered up all the advanced civilizations that have existed on earth.
Those civilizations are probably still here hiding in plain sight.
Thank you!
Wow!!! Like the Elvish archetecture of Rivendell in Lord of the Rings...a lost civilisation no doubt. Great vid bruv!👊🏼😎
Thank you for all this I’ve been searching & learning all this & it was perfect to stumble upon your videos I am from the salt lake area & I’ve been fascinated by the building all over since I was kid & always was a little off & my mind was always into how & where & nothing that they say or teach doesn’t add up. Very fun to go look at these for your self.
Thank you for sharing with us again Jon, I always look forward to your vids....GREAT PICS! Years ago, I started collecting the ornate doorknobs & back-plates, they were very popular during the Victorian era, some are cast bronze, others are machine pressed plates...ALL of them are simply amazing...:-}
Fascinating collection it must be! I hope to see it one day ;) God bless
I have a small Eastlake assortment -they are SO gorgeous. Little works of art for sure.
If you go to salt lake now you can see the bottom of the temple layers of the mud flood it has more stairs that go down on the east side of the temple. it’s all dug up right now it was all perfect timing for my new set of fresh eyes.
The stars, on the side of the temple...the big dipper.........
XMormon viewer here! I went thru the SL Temple in the 90s. It is so beautiful inside. I too lived in Utah (for a short time) so I find your Utah vids especially interesting! It's a bit of a wild exercise to rethink this specific history all over again. Cheers!
Do Mormons realize or ever discuss that they are an exoteric version of Freemasonry and that Joseph Smith was a Mason?
@@kybalion848 My experience before I left was that very few knew that their temple ceremony is related to Masonic rituals. There have been a few books and articles written about it, but they aren't read by most members. The church has admitted to the connection recently, but most members don't know about that either. When anything is ever said about the subject the story goes about like this: The Masons had a distorted ceremony passed down from Solomon's temple. It lost its authority and truth and when Joseph Smith became a Mason, he saw the distortions and went about to bring the "true" ceremony back to the earth.
Wonderful sunday morning w a Jon Levi presentation magic! *.* Thank You so much Jon, feels like we travel with you accompany you, and share the absolute magnificence of those glorious energy generating cathedrals which I prefer to call versus "buildings"
It wouldn’t seem that the suns, stars, moons and the position of what you said are mercury balls, would be random on such a fully designed building. I appreciate your videos. I have been to Salt Lake City. It’s a beautifully built city considering the horse and buggy settlers.
Very Interesting video thankyouverymuch👍👍👍🤝🤝🤝👋👋👋😎🇩🇪🇩🇪
It's always fun to ...ask a few questions...lol...great video my friend..thank you again😎
A lover of architectural greatness. I too have marveled at the SLC design and stone work. What is often overlooked is the old Hotel Utah, now Joseph Smith Memorial building. IMO it is the most beautiful building in the whole state of Utah...a priceless historical building.
Even if everything Jon Levi said was a lie I would still listen because his voice is so relaxing.
Very interesting,thanks Jon.
Sounds 🦋
Lol Jon Levi we couldn’t make the door 🚪 knobs now!!
No factory’s no infrastructure no skilled craftsmen the list goes on n on!!!
I live in Wilmington Delaware, And I'm gonna go check out some buildings in my city because there are many that resemble the old world like in your videos! God bless and keep up the good work my friend.
Whoever lived there, were very big FOLKS.........
Again they just expect us to buy it.... no they didn't build that.... they founded it.... Love to see they building it.... Love Thanks Jon!
Hi Jon! Great work. Love it. If you get the time look at Ludwig the second, the fairytale king. Who, seemingly, was building the castle that Disneyland is inspired by. Just look. With your knowledge you will quickly see what that story really is telling. It is German history, but you will see something that will amaze you. Garanteed :)
What time demonstrates , is a time of unknowing to all , where more are present in it .. Like some twilight zone of existence..
Well, it feels like the Twilight Zone, everything is dark and the sun never shines - all the greenery a faded green, not bright and lively anymore...its awful to be honest
The moon phases remind me of the 13 moons on turtles back story because you can also do the 28 phases of the moon on the bottom sections of a box turtle shell.
Amazing
Jon- ty for all your time and thoughts in putting out videos. You are one of the few real ones on You Tube
I was born and raised in Utah. I can't wait to visit one day.
Perfect choice again! Said Temple is CNC machined for sure! So Amazing! We have a
" Ashton Memorial is a folly in Williamson Park, Lancaster, Lancashire, England built between 1907 and 1909 by the millionaire industrialist Lord Ashton in memory of his second wife, Jessy, at a cost of £87,000! Oh yes 1 single man for his dead wife! AS you do? Copper topped domes and most of us remember all the fountains working! Thank you again John!! Really Amazing!
Another gem I have not seen yet. Amazing.
Love it as usual. Gorgeous stuff too. Great job!!
Love this one
Every time I hear your voice - it's hard to not start pleasuring myself
If John read the phone directory it would sound very interesting!
All good.
Jon....you didn't make it into the tabernacle......with the massive organ!
@vernon padilla 😂
All the places I have viewed but have never seen.I too wish I could go and see again with fresh eyes.
Love the doggie at 4:22!
Always love doing a little dance to the ending song. Sweet videos.
Here's some things you're missing in your assumptions: The Mormon pioneers arrived in Salt Lake Valley July 24th, 1847. So no, they didn't petition congress from the wagon train. The Rio Grande building was a train depot as well, and is now actively open to the public as a little museum. The Transcontinental Railroad was not finished in Salt Lake. The temple's construction was from 1853-1893, so it took 40 years, not 10. Yes, the Tabernacle was completed before the temple, being built from 1863-1875. The stars on the East side of the temple are in the shape of the little dipper and north star. The sun/moon/stars represent the different degrees of glory in Mormon belief of heaven. Also, the temple is used every day, all day, hosting hundreds of ceremonies. The Joseph Smith Memorial building is dominantly used as office space nowadays, but it was completed in 1911. By then, the settlers had been in Utah for 64 years and the mining industry was bringing in thousands of visitors from all over the world. They weren't "primitive people" with oxen and wagons by then. The "cheap sign" in the center is carved into the structure, original to it, and laid in with 22k gold leaf. That's all!
Awesome Brother
