Ever since the 1950's Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael, KKL-JNF planted six million trees in memory of the Holocaust victims. The most famous monument in the forest is the "Scroll of Fire" two large bronze cylinders that represent the destruction and rebirth of Israel. In the forest stands a memorial to Anne Frank, who perhaps more than anyone else, represents the horrors of the Holocaust for many people.

As construction of the innovative Baha'i House of Worship gets under way here, a new book and website have been launched to meet growing interest in the Temple and what it represents.
The publication, "Donde Brilla La Luz" ("Where the Light Shines"), aims to respond to questions about the Baha'i Faith and includes reflections on the impact that the House of Worship is intended to make on the society around it.
It has been written by Daniel Duhart from Chile, Helen Mirkovitch-Kohm of Costa Rica and Jairo Roldan from Colombia.
