Wilmette | Bahá' í house of worship
The Bahá'í House of Worship in North America, with its pure white exterior and intricate patterns, is stunningly beautiful. The dome of the House of Worship is also a must-see sight, and the surrounding scenery is lovely too—remember to bring a bouquet of flowers for your photos. 📝 The Bahá'í Faith, a religion that emerged in the 19th century, has positioned its houses of worship on every continent. There are currently only eight Bahá'í Houses of Worship worldwide, and the one in Wilmette is the unique one for North America (the one in Santiago, Chile, was completed and opened in 2016). It is also the oldest House of Worship in the world, taking 41 years to build and completed in 1953. The term "House of Worship" in Arabic means "the place of God's remembrance." ✔️The Bahá'í House of Worship in Chicago is renowned for its distinctive architectural style and exquisite carvings, presenting an elegant appearance of white marble. The design of the House of Worship aims to promote peace and harmony, offering a tranquil space for people to meditate and pray. #ChicagoLife #ChicagoTravel #ChicagoSurroundings #ChicagoWeekend
