One of the most beautiful specimen?s of modern architecture is the Lotus temple, a symbol of Bahai faith. It was completed in 1986 under the guidance of the Persian architect from Canada, Fariborz Sahba. Located in Kalkaji, the whole temple has been constructed out of milk white marble in the shape of a lotus. The temple is open to people of all religion and is more of a meditation hall. It is well known for its prayer sessions. Visitors are required to maintain silence inside the premises and entry is free for all.
