The king of Tonga, His Majesty George Tupou V, described the temple as magnificent and a tribute to the glory of God at an event for the opening of the temple.
The temple in Tonga originally opened in August 1983. In 2006 it was closed for a significant expansion, which has added more that 5,000 square feet to the structure. Following the open house, the temple will be closed to the public, and only eligible members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will be able to enter.
