लोटस टेंपल

यह दिल्ली में सबसे प्रतिष्ठित और सहज-पहचाने जाने योग्य मंदिरों में से एक है। यह दुनिया में अपनी तरह के नवीनतम धर्म के रूप में बहाई धर्म के अंतर्गत आता है। दिल्ली के दक्षिणी कोने में स्थित है, इस मंदिर का आकार इसके प्राथमिक आकर्षणों में से एक है। मुख्य भवन में एक विशाल प्रार्थना कक्ष है और इसके अन्दर जाने के लिए कई प्रवेश द्वार हैं। इस मंदिर के बारे में एक दिलचस्प तथ्य यह है कि इसका कोई पारंपरिक प्रतीक नहीं है जैसे पूजा का स्थान या कोई वेदी का प्रतीक, कोई मूर्ति नहीं है और न ही कोई धार्मिक ग्रंथ है। यह एक बहुत ही शांतिपूर्ण स्थान है जहाँ भक्त चिंतन और ध्यान में कई घंटे बिता सकते हैं। यही ऐसा अनूठा स्थान है।
