This is an image of the House of Worship in Tiapapata, 8 km from Apia, Samoa that was completed in 1984 and serves as the Mother Temple of the Pacific Islands. The design was by Hossein Amanat, and was dedicated by Malietoa Tanumafili II, King of Samoa (1913-2007), who was the first reigning Bahá’í monarch. Its 30 meter domed structure is open to the public for individual prayer, commemoration of Bahá’í holy days, and weekly devotional meetings. The structure is completely open to the island breezes. | ||
