The Life of Bahá’u’lláh

The photographs here give a glimpse into the extraordinary life of Bahá’u’lláh. They present His story in pictures: His birthplace, the cities of His exile, the cell in which He was confined for two years and His final resting place. Here, too, are examples of His handwriting, relics of His remarkable life, and photographs of the beautiful gardens in the Holy Land which His life inspired.
