At the last moment our guide took us to the gardens. We were impressed beyond imagination! They mentioned that they employed 100 gardeners. The place shows it.

Stopped by to see the gardens yesterday. As gorgeous from below as from above. Take the free tour (confirm details before going) to have more access within the gardens.

Even non believers will appreciate the beauty and harmony of these gardens and the flowers dedicate to the World Centre of the Baha'i Faith. It is an oasis of tranquility in a very busy city.

Impressive very formal garden The gardens opens at 9 but closes at either 12! (inner gardens) or 5! (all of it) The gardens would look beautiful at dusk, and for working families they could go after work.

We were blessed...

Gardens are stunning and beautiful but found it difficult to navigate between the two public parts of the gardens by myself on foot -- make sure you chart it out first if you want to see both parts.

What an amazing view over Haifa and the ocean. The temple is beautiful, with the golden dome reflecting in the sun, and the gardens are spectacular
