the magical Lotus

LOTUS TEMPLE: Built in 1986, this petal formation temple is known as LOTUS TEMPLE and is situated in the heart of Delhi, the capital of India. The Baha'i faith teaches that a Baha'i House of Worship  should be a space for people of all religions to gather, reflect, and worship and with that vision this temple came into existence. The main building of this Bahai temple of Worship has 27 marble petals arranged in clusters of three to form nine sides. It has nine doors opening onto a central hall with a height of slightly over 34 meters and a capacity of 1,300 people. Keeping in view the purity and calmness of the place, only two doors are operated. One is used for the entrance of visitors and the second is used for the exit. You will find Volunteers and team members standing along the route and at prominent places to guide you and enlighten you about the history associated and other information about the place. You can take pictures around the complex but it's prohibited inside the main temple. The calmness inside the temple removes all the negative thoughts and enables you to connect to your soul and channelise your energy circles that guide you to the path of Spirituality and Humanity with satisfaction and inner peace. #thatwiseowl #guidebook #travelblogger #hiddengems #travelrealindia
