Solomon's Temple. A monolithic red sandstone structure in The Last Chance Desert of Utah. It's about 35 miles deep into the desert. Due to its unique natural shape resembling an ancient biblical structure it was named after the original First Temple commissioned during the reign of King Solomon in Jerusalem and was destroyed during the Siege of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar II of the Neo-Babylonian Empire in 587 BCE.
I spent the night here for an astrophotography session of the Milky Way.
