The Baha'i Temple is probably the most modern building we'll see while in India. Unsurprisingly, it is also called the Lotus Temple as the design was inspired by the lotus flower, with 27 petals emerging from 9 pools, symbolizing the 9 spiritual paths of the Baha'i faith, which originated in Persia and view humanity as one single race.
We've seen lotus flowers represented everywhere here in India, and we love it!
