The Lotus Temple is the Bahai temple in Delhi, India. It is called the Lotus temple because of its lotus-like shape. It is one of the most popular tourist attractions of Delhi.

This marvelous structure is spread across 26 acres of land. It is carved out of 27 free falling marble clad petals arranged in clusters of three to form nine sides making it look like a real lotus.

The temple surrounds itself with aquatic blue transparent water bodies and lush green gardens on all sides making it look like a lotus floating in water.
