The Baha'i teaching is associated with the idea that "Beauty will save the World". It does not reject existing religions and does not oppose itself to them. The tomb of its founder, the Bab, on the slope of Mount Carmel in Haifa is surrounded by 19 terraces according to the number of the first 18 students (they are called the “Letters of the Living”) and their teachers descending from the top of the mountain and covering the tomb in concentric arcs over a kilometer of the slope. The tomb is filled with light and the scent of roses. The design of the Bahai terraces began in 1987, their author Sahba used the ideas of the Persian Gardens of Eden, noise does not get here, the bustle and mediocre ecology of the third largest city in Israel do not reach here, nothing interferes with the perception of the surrounding beauty.
