Excellent. Must visit while your stay in Delhi. Should be on the top list. Entrance is free. Go early morning to avoid the daily public rush as it can get very crowded during the day any day of the week. Very picturesque place and you would love to take lots of pictures. One of the most beautiful tourist site.

Bahai Temple aka "The Lotus Temple", in Noida Area on the outskirts of New Delhi, is a place of Peace Worship that demonstrates silence can be peaceful and powerful. It is a place open to all religions. In absolute silence of visitors, scriptures from Budha and Bahai are read out or sung and the acoustics inside the lotus dome make it vibrate through one's body, mind and soul. It is closed on Mondays. Open from 8 AM-6 PM (April to September) and 8:30 AM -5 PM (October -March). No entrance fee. Only requirement is silence. No Photos inside the temple and cellphones on silent mode. Foot wear to be removed and put in a bag provided, which can be deposited to a counter on the way in, a token issued and the bag can be collected at the counter on left on your way out. Visitors from all countries can be seen visiting this place and weekend visitors are more. The longer prayer times are 10 AM, 12 Noon, 2 PM and 4 PM. visitors are not allowed for these sessions and Bahai followers participate. It is better to visit after 10 AM and before 12 Noon as visitors are usually less. Then, it gets crowded. Visitors are requested to queue up, remove foot wear, maintain silence, no photos inside, mobile silent etc in Hindi & English and each session for visitors last 10 minutes inside the dome. That way 6 batches per hour fill the hall inside the dome. Inside of the dome resembles a church with sunken pit for stage, with just lamps lit. No figures or pics of God or Light through a window pane as in a Synagogue. That's why it is appealing to all religions and domestic/ International visitors. Some say the Lotus dome is based on Australian structure at Sydney (Opera House). This structure is based on Lotus Flower with 9 petals per whorl, in 3 whorls, totalling 27 lotus petals.

Never been before to a Bahāʾī temple, honestly discovered their existence very recently. A place to visit, a sense of freedom and quiet all around you, very well taken care of. Mind the fact that you have to remove the shoes to enter and that no food or cigarettes and similar are allowed in; maybe this could be written somewhere in big format outside the side ... otherwise, it gets too late ... a place absolutely not to miss if you are in the area and worth returning.

The Lotus Temple is also known as Baha’i House of Warship. This is a very worthy destination while visiting Delhi. The entrance is free but you get to be screened at the gate. Fairly busy and crowded. The large area is fenced in and very nicely landscaped. The foot traffic is guided and regulated. You have to deposit your shoe in a provided bag and subsequently in an underground full service well organized locker. The architecture and design of the temple is both simple and stunning. You have to be prepared to stand in a very long and slowly moving line to enter. The auditorium sits 1300 and welcomes you to sit down for a moment of meditation. Booklets in Hindu and English are provided and your to keep. Np pictures are allowed to be taken inside. Visit also the information center at the opposite end of the property. Do not expect bathrooms in the information center, there is a separate building with toilets on the way from the temple.

Spiritual and quiet place to visit. One of the cleanest monument in India. Architectural beauty. Great infrastructure and eye catching garden. If you like, drink coconut water opposite of monument. It's good.

One of the better places to visit in Delhi. Most of the architecture in Delhi is bad. This one has been designed by a foreigner and has been built well. Maintenance however is poor. Urinals were overflowing, poor queue management systems, and sad footwear management systems. They don't even plant shady trees for people to sit in the shade when the rush is heavy. Instead, all the lawns are kept off limits to people. The place is spiritual and you do feel the energy inside the main area. However, children bawling and people talking on the phone, disturb the atmosphere. Several couples were actually on a date in the prayer room. Visit for the architecture and design. Rest all is okayish.

Lovely half hour spent in a park like setting. The Lotus temple is lovely, the architecture is more modern and interesting. There is a bit of a walk from where you enter. There are also stairs to get up to the temple entrance. You will line up in groups, and then be allowed into the temple for 10 minutes. There is no talking permitted inside. And that's it....the grounds are cordoned off...so no wandering around in the gorgeous gardens. You will be corralled back down the stairs, shoes returned and then off you go. It was really better than it sounds. The grounds are beautifully kept and the Temple itself is gorgeous.

Visited here pre-Covid on a day off from a work trip. The architecture is absolutely stunning. You usually have to queue to get in, but it’s worth it just to see such a unique building up close. If you’re in the area it’s well worth a visit.

Quite a beautiful structure & temple dedicated to the Baháʼí Faith and is suitable for anyone of different religions & cultures to visit. The temple was a nice, well maintained and modern structure and it reminds me a lot of the Sydney Opera House in terms of its architectural appearance and the gardens around the temple were quite beautiful and well-decorated. Although some of my family members believed there could have been some religious idols inside the temple, I was personally fine with there not being any specific idol as this method helps to avoid religious conflicts in the temple. My only issue with the place although minor was that while it was peaceful inside the building for the most part, the peace was interrupted at times by some people chatting in the background without much respect for the quiet rules and by some children making noises. But apart from that, was a nice place to visit, especially as I'm a believer myself on the respect/unity of all religions and cultures despite being a proud Hindu myself.

Beautiful, Inside is super plain so you can literally get dropped off at the gate, enter in the que and then quickly see the visitors centre in 15 min and then take pictures of the temple and leave. If you chose to go in, be aware, you have to take your shoes off halfway and put them in a bag and then drop them at a shoe drop. This is chaotic and very tight space. It sort of put me off the entire experience. Then going inside you have to que again. The best part is the picture from the outside. So we saw the visitor centre and the temple in under 30 min.
