International Peace Gardens, Botanical garden in Jordan Park, Salt Lake City, United States.
The International Peace Gardens spans 11 acres along the Jordan River, featuring designated plots that represent 28 different nations through plants and structures.
Founded in 1939 by Mrs. Otto Wiesley during World War II, the gardens officially opened in 1952 to honor immigrant contributions to Utah.
Each nation maintains its own garden section, incorporating traditional elements such as China's Plum Pavilion and Greece's Ionic columns representing democracy.
The gardens remain open daily from 7 AM to 10 PM at 1060 S 900 W, offering free admission and wheelchair-accessible paved paths throughout the grounds.
Switzerland's garden contains an eight-foot replica of the Matterhorn mountain alongside a miniature Swiss chalet surrounded by local flora.
