Lower Terraces Open Day

On 3 April, an open day for the public on the Lower Terraces of the Shrine of the Báb in Haifa took place. This activity was part of the celebration on the recent inscription of the Bahá’í Shrines on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. People were able to walk freely up and down the terraces and view some exhibits relating to World Heritage. There were some craft activities for children like coloring, flower making, planting with all sorts of materials and chalk painting activity on Ben Gurion Avenue where part of the street was closed to traffic. There was also an ethnic music festival where different musical groups performed in the German Colony. It was truly a successful event, our family enjoyed it a lot, we also climbed the terraces together. You can check the new website of the Bahá’í gardens where information about the Bahá’í gardens in Haifa and Akka is provided. Enjoy our photos!
