Salvation Mountain - GOD IS LOVE

Salvation Mountain is located in the lower desert of Southern California in Imperial County just east of the Salton Sea and about a hour and a half from Palm Springs. This artwork was hand-created by a local resident, Leonard Knight, with adobe, straw, and thousands of gallons of lead-free paint. Leonard says this was his tribute to God and his gift to the world with its simple yet powerful message: "God Is Love."

This masterpiece includes a yellow pathway up the mountain, scriptures all around, and many other fascinating and colorful objects and features. It is a beautiful piece of artwork and is definitely one of my favorites. If you are ever traveling to or from AZ/CA, it is definitely a must go to on the way or on the way home! You've gotta see it for yourself.
