Inspired by religious architecture from around the world, this house of worship's arabesque panels emanate a "Temple of Light and Unity." There are nine gardens, accented by fountains and colorful foliage, that surround the palatial temple and although this location looks great from any angle, the design and landscape is best seen from a bird's eye perspective.

This aerial drone image was taken from above the Bahá'í House of Worship, with the Wilmette suburb landscape in the background. I stood in a parking lot that's adjacent to the house of worship (reference the GPS to get my exact location). From there, I launched my drone and flew south.
