We arrived in Haifa in the evening and were in a hurry to catch an excursion to the Bahai Gardens. But we didn’t have time, as visiting is allowed until 17 hours.
However, the view that opened from the upper entrance, and the whole panorama of the bay, did not leave indifferent anyone from our large group. We talked with the guard, who said that today it would be impossible to get into the gardens by any means or requests. But tomorrow it will be possible to go up to a certain level, take a walk, look and take pictures.
The next day, four of us decided to travel by bus from Nahariya to Haifa to walk around the city and see the Bahai Gardens.
They have 2 entrances - to the upper part and to the older middle part. The lowest one is the exit for tourists and the entrance for Baha'is pilgrims. Only they can go up, tourists can only go down. The lower platform overlooks Ben Gurion Street.
You can go down the stairs only with a guided tour. Without a guided tour, you can only enter the upper terrace and the garden around the Shrine of the Bá b. Naturally, we were without an excursion, so we walked where we were allowed.
Everything is so neatly planted, each terrace attracts in its own way - these even lawns, paths with broken red tiles, various trees, beautiful carpets of flowers - everything around creates an incredibly special aura. I just want to walk, be silent, breathe in and look into the distance.
It is not allowed to sit in the gardens - there are no benches, use a mobile phone, eat, drink only water.
This is a place that is definitely worth a visit. And Haifa itself is a very beautiful city, also "multi-level" due to its location on the mountain.
