With over 350 illustrations in full colour, this stunning book offers a taste of what it is like to be a Bahá'í pilgrim to the World Centre of the Bahá'í Faith in the Holy Land. It is is intended both for those who have been on pilgrimage and for those who have not yet been or who are unable to go.

An excellent gift choice.

Taking the reader on a guided pictorial journey and with over 350 full-colour illustrations, the book invites meditation and reflection. The commentary is by Lesley Taherzadeh, who served at the Baha'i World Centre as an official guide to the pilgrims for over a decade:

'As I saw it, my role was to facilitate their experience and to bring alive for them the history of the Holy Places, and then to stand back and let them each have their own individual experience.'

This book will make an excellent choice for a really special gift.
