celestial paradise

Abode of angels

Celestial paradise is heaven or an idealized afterlife realm—a place of eternal bliss believed to exist in or beyond the sky.

The phrase combines celestial (of the heavens) with paradise (a perfect dwelling place), emphasizing both its divine location and its nature as ultimate reward: The faithful believed their souls would ascend to celestial paradise.
