The Bahá'í House of Worship in Delhi, India, popularly known as the Lotus Temple, is a Bahai House of Worship and also a prominent attraction in Delhi. Inspired by the lotus flower, its design is composed of 27 free-standing marble clad "petals" arranged in clusters of three to form nine sides. The architect was an Iranian, who now lives in Canada, named Fariborz . The major part of the funds needed to buy this land was donated by Ardishír Rustampúr of Hyderabad, who gave his entire life savings for this purpose in 1953.
