The Palmyra Visitors Center
Pictures from Palmyra's Visitor Center.

The Palmyra Visitors Center was a wonderful experience. We saw a 15-20 minute video of Joseph Smith's life during the time he had his First Vision of God the Father and Jesus Christ. The video that we saw was new, and it was very well done! I felt the spirit strongly testify to me of the things I saw and heard. I know Joseph Smith was chosen of God to be the prophet who restored His Church on earth.

This beautiful stained glass picture is of the Angel Moroni when he instructed Joseph Smith regarding the Gold Plates.

There were wonderful 3-D murals from scenes of the Book of Mormon at the Palmyra Visitor Center. Here's one of Moroni as he put the gold plates into the Hill Cumorah.

Another mural of Nephi and his family as they built a ship to sail to the Americas. If you look closely you can see Nephi's shadow on the left and right because he was separate from the back of the picture.

There was a round table with a map of the world on the surface. As you can see in the picture below there were tons of Book of Mormons on the two levels of the table, but each was in a different language. It was incredible!
