Haifa rises in tiers from the Mediterranean up Mount Carmel, with the port at the bottom, the German Colony in the middle and the residential Carmel neighbourhoods along the ridge. The Bahá'í Gardens, nineteen terraces of lawns, stairways and fountains around the golden-domed Shrine of the Báb, are a World Heritage Site.
