The temple represents the Bahai
faith which is broad in its outlook, scientific
in the influence it exerts on the hearts and minds
of men. It signifies the purity and the universality
of the lord and equality of all religions. Visited
by over four million people, annually, this gleaming
lotus- like marble structure is located on Bahapur
Hills (South Delhi) and it is the seventh and most
recent Bahai houses of worship in the world. The
temple is a must visit for every tourist who comes
to Delhi.
This structure, completed in 1986, is a marvel of
modern architecture. Set amidst pools and gardens,
the view of the temple is very spectacular just
before dusk when the temple is flood lit.
Anyone is free to visit the temple and pray or meditate
silently according to their own religion. The temple
is around 45 minutes from Domestic Airport.
