Haifa, the 3rd largest city in Israel, lies on the western slope of Mount Carmel, descending to the Mediterranean shore, and offering magnificent views of the sea and Mount Carmel area. It has the country's largest port, thriving industries, institutes of higher education and many interesting museums.
Haifa is especially renown for the harmonious interaction among the different faiths, Muslim, Christian, Jewish, and Baha'i.
A very remarkable sight in Haifa is the Baha'i Shrine -The Shrine of the Bab. This gold-domed marble structure was built in 1953 over the burial place of Said Ali Mohammad (The Bab), whom founders of Baha'i religion consider as the forerunner of Baha'i faith.
The shrine is surrounded by beautiful gardens |
