The craft in the sculptures is exquisite. The garden is beautiful. I especially liked the portrayal of the story of Lazarus rising from the dead—you can view Jesus looking down into the tomb from the perspective of Lazarus. I was disappointed that the portrayal of Jesus appeared to be a Caucasian, European man, rather than a more accurate depiction of a middle-eastern 1st century Jew. The garden is mostly tailored to a Mormon audience, but I do think most mainstream Christians could find value out of it (just skip the "First Vision" display near the end). Speaking of the First Vision, I felt the display was highly sugarcoated. Many Mormons dont realize there are multiple accounts of Joseph Smiths first vision that differ greatly. This display perpetuates the sugarcoated narrative of the Mormon church.

Beautiful garden and statues; peaceful and away from the bustle of the World.
