Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

On my first trip to Israel, I wondered how a place like this became a UNESCO site. It is absolutely gorgeous and amazingly symmetrical. More color in spring and summer. The view from both bottom and top are equally beautiful.

Visit this place from the bottom and the top. The views are very different. Also, book your tour in advance.

The staff went out of their way to make the visit unpleasant. I use a mobility scooter, and they refused to allow me to use an accessible entrance to the gardens. My husband and the guide walked through them, and they said they were not worth seeing.

An amazing garden seen from both above and below. I didn't have time to walk through. I would have liked to walk from top to bottom.

Visited the Bahai Gardens atr the north end of Akko (Acre) on a Thursday morning. The gardens were open to the public but not the shrine and other buildings. The gardens are really beautiful and looked after very well - immaculately groomed and colourful. Unfortunately not much shade from the hot sun to just sit and enjoy the grounds. These gardens are nowhere as good as the gardens in Haifa but have easy access and parking facilities. And of course there is no entrance fee or need to book in advance. Open from Thursdays through to Sundays. Guided tours must be booked in advanced.

Very manicured and beautiful garden. The garden has two levels and when we visited, you cannot walk from one to the other, so must walk or drive between the entrance. The top entrance can get very crowded as that's where all those famous photos of the gardens are taken. The bottom level is where you can access the small shrine.

Garden is immaculate if you like that sort of thing. Wish there were more information regarding this interesting religion.

Beautiful manicured gardens with lush greenery. The places you can actually open to the public is quite limited. We were not able to take the tour, but it’s probably more interesting if you have the chance to do so.

A first-time visit to Israel MUST include a visit to Haifa's most stunning attraction... The Bahai Gardens. It is truly unique and spectacular. During my year in Haifa in the early 70's, I visited the Gardens several times, at least once each time someone came to visit us from abroad. The Gardens are laid out on a mountainside with a staircase descending hundreds of feet from the top entrance to the Shrine below. The expanse of the place is breathtaking. Words are inadequate, so please look at the photos I and other reviewers have provided. Admission is free, but the times are variable. Check before you go.

Beautiful gardens perfectly manicured at the holiest place for Baha'i. Not many people visit the place.

The gardens here are not as impressive as in Haifa, but still very beautiful and well maintained, and you can walk through them with a little bit more freedom. The shrine visit is "guided" (open only 9-12) and the flow of visitors is controlled - there is nothing truly special about the shrine, but you get a bit of information about the founder of the Baha'i faith. As a free attraction, it is worth a stop if you are in the area, but note that it is not within walking distance from the Old City of Acre.
