Bahai Center Anniversary

Dan656 · 01-02-2012, 09:43 AM

Hi everyone, I'm new here in the forum. I'm not Baha'i, although I have some Bahai friends and probably would like to become Bahai some day .
I live in Haifa and a friend of mine visited here specially for the Haifa Bahai Temple's 10th anniversary in October. The celebration was very fun, it attracted a lot of tourists as well as local people (I'm one of them), and ended with a celebration on the street at the foot of the Bahai Center. We had a lot of fun.

She's an amateur photographer, and entered to a photo-contest with a photo she took at the celebration:

joomgallery-782

She needs as much votes as she can to win this.
(she's not very optimistic about it, so I thought I'd surprise her and show her how many people like her photo and support her).

So if you like the photo or if you'd like to support her, or if you simply liked the celebration as well please vote.
Let's help her get to first place!
Thanks!

Much as I hate to disappoint you, there IS no Baha'i temple in Haifa at this time! All that exists at present is an obelisk at the site (about a mile away from the terraces) where one will be built eventually. And the obelisk has been there far longer than ten years.

So whatever anniversary was happening there, it wasn't for a Baha'i temple.

Peace, :-)

This is surely what Dan is referring to: The 10th Anniversary of the Gardens at the World Centre last October.

Baha'i Shrine and Gardens, Haifa - Celebration of the 10th anniversary of the Bahai Gardens - YouTube

Whilst I did have to wait a little for the photo to appear, I did manage to get a vote in. Thanks Dan for your support of your friend.
