The Lotus Temple, also known as the Baháʼí House of Worship, is one of Delhi’s most iconic landmarks, famed for its striking lotus-shaped architecture and its message of universal unity, peace, and spiritual reflection. Open to people of all religions, backgrounds, and beliefs, it invites visitors to sit in silence, meditate, and contemplate in a serene, non-denominational space.
Designed by Iranian architect Fariborz Sahba, the temple was completed in 1986 and features 27 white marble petals arranged in the shape of a lotus flower, symbolizing purity and divine beauty. Surrounded by lush gardens and nine pools, it offers a tranquil retreat from the bustle of city life.
Inside, the central prayer hall accommodates over 2,000 people but remains quiet and minimal—no rituals, sermons, or religious icons—only peaceful stillness, where one can meditate or pray silently.
