Temple
10:26 AMThis is by far one of my favorite places in the Chicagoland area. And so, I thought it would be fitting to include it in my "Places" series.
The Bahá'í House of Worship in Wilmette, Illinois, is the oldest surviving Bahá'í House of Worship in the world, and the only one in the United States. Open all year round, it is a wonderful place to meditate and it is open to people of all religious backgrounds.
I love coming here! I generally fall into a sense of awe when I step onto the winding path surrounding the Temple. Every season the grounds are well-kept and the scenery is breath-taking.
Summertime is my favorite there because of the beautiful deep-blue pools and fountains that explode with beauty along the grounds. I certainly look forward to coming back each year!
But, at any time of the year, Bahá'í offers beauty, serenity, and peace.

On this randomly warm day here in Chicago, we decided to play around with different angles that captured both my outfit and the scenery. Hope you enjoy this little photo diary xo
