Monument Gardens (Baháʼí World Centre)

The Monument Gardens are a set of gardens which hold the graves of some of the members of the family of Baháʼu'lláh, founder of the Baháʼí Faith. The grave monuments are located downhill from the Baháʼí Arc on Mount Carmel, Haifa, Israel, at the Baháʼí World Centre and were constructed by Shoghi Effendi between 1932 and 1939.[1]
