Check out this video on YouTube: <a href="http://youtu.be/gJNWnbaHJFM" rel="nofollow">youtu.be/gJNWnbaHJFM</a> In 1987 Canadian architect Fariborz Sahba was assigned by the Bahá’í World Centre the task of designing 18 monumental terraces as a path of approach to the Shrine of the Báb, one of the most holy pilgrimage sites for the Bahá’í is of the world. The Terraces stretch about a kilometer up the mountain, reaching a height of 225 meters, and the width of the landscaped gardens ranges from 60 meters to almost 400 meters. In order to create a continuous pedestrian pathway from the foot to the crest of the mountain, bridges and pedestrian underpasses have been provided for crossing Yefe Nof Street, Hatzionut Avenue and Abbas Street. The Terraces and gardens are unique in style, with meticulous attention to detail. The natural elements of light and water form the main decoration of the Terraces. The ornaments in stone and metal that beautify them are chosen for their aesthetic appeal and have no religious significance One of the distinguishing features of these gardens is the attention paid to the conservation of the mountain environment and water resources. The formal gardens along the Terraces' central axis blend on either side into informal gardens featuring drought-resistant native trees and wildflowers.
