The garden of NajIb Pás̲h̲á, situated on the outskirts of Bag̲h̲dád, across the River Tigris from the House of Bahá'u'lláh. In April—May 1863 Bahá'u'Iláh spent twelve days in the NajIbíyyih Garden immediately before His exile from Bag̲h̲dád to Constantinople. It was here that He made the public declaration of His mission. The Garden subsequently became known among Bahá'ís as the Garden of Riḍván.
