在Magaret的邮件中得知巴哈伊中心被选为世界文化遗产之一，巴哈伊网站的标题为Baha’i shrines chosen as World Heritage sites。

The Shrine of the Bab on the northern slope of Mount Carmel in Haifa, Israel, is one of the Baha’i sites named to the World Heritage list. A famous landmark in Haifa, it attracts a half million visitors a year.

The Shrine of Baha’u’llah near Acre, north of Haifa – the holiest spot on earth for members of the Baha’i Faith – also is part of the World Heritage designation.

图片中文简单解说

各地的巴哈伊要去海法的巴哈伊中心朝圣的话需要申请。一般分成两种申请，一种是9天，比较完全，整个地方朝拜完，在新加坡申请的话需要等待2到5年；第二种为期3天，只是外围观看一下，比较核心的比如正义院、图书馆等不能进去，但这种申请一般随时都会被批准。
