The hall is 112.5 feet (34.27 meters) high. Thought-provoking quotes of the Baha'i sacred scriptures are inscribed on the petal alcoves. Set amidst beautiful gardens, the temple is at its most exuberant best when the sun dazzles these lotus petals. When entering you will have to remove your shoes and keep silent.

The city has many different shopping areas, each market having a distinctive ambiance.

We were a group of 20 friends and Deejohn Holidays provided a very good support and guidance. The guide Satish was just perfect, always smiling, patient and always there to help. The whole staff was punctual, friendly and ready to respond to all our needs. They arranged our trips to Ellora Caves (A must see!), Ajanta, Aurangabad and other locations, where we had another incredible guide who even sang to us to let us feel the authentic experience in temples and caves.
I highly recommend Deejohn Holidays for their reliability, safety, punctuality and friendliness.

I had a blast! Being a foreigner to this country, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. Both Sumit and Mahip were super helpful and patient. Not only was it great to see the temples but also given in-depth insights into the religions and culture. The food at lunch was also amazing! I'd definitely book with them again ????

Sumit and our driver picked us up promptly from the hotel the morning of the tour. We were 3 people and we travelled comfortably. We had a wonderful day, seeing amazing monuments and historical sites. Mahip was very knowledgeable and could answer any questions we asked. He was a great guide, and he went out of his way to show us places and things that interested us, he also took some great photos of us. I highly recommend him as a guide :)
