Hill Cumorah is a prominent hill located in western New York, known for its significance in Latter-day Saint history. It is believed to be the site where the prophet Moroni buried the golden plates, which were later translated by Joseph Smith to produce the Book of Mormon. The hill is also a popular pilgrimage site for members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Each year, thousands visit to learn about its historical importance and to participate in events such as the Hill Cumorah Pageant, which dramatizes the events surrounding the Book of Mormon.
