Default What do Israeli Jews, especially residents of Haifa, think of the Baha'i Shrine?

In Haifa there is the Shrine of the Bab, I am wondering what do Israelis think of the shrine and the Baha'i Faith in general?

To answer you, I think its one of the most beautiful gardens I have ever see, it is seriously Beautiful have been to the Baha'i headquarter 2x.Most Israelis feel the same way as I do and regard the gardens as a great tourist destination..I have nothing against the Baha'i faith, I have respect for them.

i think its just amazing...looks a bit like paradise (near the fountains and orange trees)
their faith is peace full so they dint look for trouble.

We think the Baha'i shrine is beautiful.
As a middle-school student in Israel, I remember going there on a field trip. We had a guide who spoke to us about the history of the place, the basic principles of the Baha'i faith, etc.
I will never forget that field trip, which took place many years ago.

I went to the Baha'i gardens in the north of Israel when I lived there. I thought it was beautifully as is the Bahai faith...

Except for a few extreme orthodox groups - Israelis are actually quite spiritual people - and a lot of them are into yoga and eastern philosophy etc..

as for the shrine - i think its beautifully and i think its welcome in Israel as is all diversity ... all humans have the right to practise and believe as they want in a peace full way - and i think this is no less true in Israel
