Utah has abundant natural beauty, most of which has become an icon of USA’s Intermountain West. Park City and the mountains near Salt Lake City are homes to some of the best skiing in the country. There are 5 national parks right on Utah's doorstep, and it’s a gateway to exploring the North Rim of the world-famous Grand Canyon.

Utah is known as the Beehive State, and you can expect to find an industry around honey that has flourished since the 1600s. And if you think about the Old West, plenty of spaghetti westerns were shot in Utah. This brush with the film industry led to the historically thriving mining town of Park City to host the annual Sundance Film Festival.
