The views at the Baha’i Gardens

Have you heard of “the Bab”? “The Bab” means “the Gate” in Arabic. In the 19th century a young merchant received a divine message that was believed to be the key to transform the life of humanity.

The goal of the Bahá’i faith was to spread spiritual and moral reformation with acts of kindness and heroism. They also believed that their mission was to prepare for the coming of God, the one that would bring true peace to earth.

Even if you do not practice or know anything about the modern form of Bahá’i faith, the impressive views and gardens of this monumental temple are worth a visit!
