Nauvoo Clock Tower and Angel Moroni

     One of my favorite features of the Nauvoo Temple is the clock tower topped with the statue of the Angel Moroni. I've talked to a few people who've been up in the tower. I'm sure the aerial view of Nauvoo and the view over the Mississippi River is incredible. I have to admit, I'm a little jealous.
     The Nauvoo Temple is one of only three in the world where the Angel Moroni faces west. The other two are the Seattle Washington Temple and the Taipei Taiwan Temple.
