The Baha'i Temple is a gorgeous piece of architecture located just north of Evanston on Sheridan Road. Especially beautiful in summer when the gardens are blooming. Services are open to all.

(15 miles north of downtown) One of only seven in the world and the only one in North America, this structure on the shores of Lake Michigan is the largest and oldest Baha’i House of Worship in existence. Visitors of all faiths are welcome to the temple to pray, meditate or take in the peaceful gardens and intricate architecture.
