Saw the temple dome above the trees and stopped to check in and find out a little more. Lovely grounds and a beautiful serene building with 9 sides and a simple yet lovely interior where one can pray, meditate and reflect, no matter your belief or religious stance. There is a public service each Sunday at 11am. Our visit was quick and we were welcomed with grace and courtesy, and not compelled to listen to dogma or details about the founding of the temple. We sat quietly inside, walked around respectfully outside and left. If you have questions however, there are one or two people happy to help.
Lovely grounds picnic area but I must say the Temple is absolutely gorgeous. Construction of the temple started in April 1957 using construction techniques never before used in Australia. Architect John Brogan Sydney with builders "Welch Brothers" were responsible for the unique building. In the dome inside the temple is a plate with the inscription" O Glory of the All Glorious". Construction was completed in 1961. The temple stands about 40 metres high with 9 side's and 9 entrances and it sits on approximately 9 hectares of bushland. The Baha'i temple is a haven of spiritual serenity and it is one of eight Baha'i temples around the world.
A nice place to visit. Very peaceful and accessible easily off Mona Vale road. Plenty of parking and a nice community who attend the temple. Have a seat in the grounds or the garden seats to enjoy the sun or sit and reflect in the temple. A nice bookstore on-site as well.
A great place to visit. This unique place is very serene and volunteers make a great effort to explain the significance of this place of worship. I was driving to Northern Beaches and noticed this and took a detour and was a fabulous experience. This place has 9 sides and the number nine is significant in the Bahá’i faith, symbolizing unity, perfection, and completion as the highest single digit. Just as there are nine gardens, the House of Worship has nine sides and nine doors.
A beautiful place, very nice people who are happy to explain and answer questions. On Sunday morning there is a service to all religions
A fascinating place to visit. Staff are helpful, explaining the religion , and showing us the building and grounds. Don't just drive past - pop in and enjoy this unique building.
Beautiful temple!
A quiet spot for whatever of these you want to do: think, pray, read, or sightsee. It's like a spot in a dream, a quiet white temple glowing in the sun amung the green.
A beautiful spiritual temple and wonderful community.
Lovely peaceful, worth visiting for spiritual enhancement.
