Heaven is whatever you desire within the confines of Gods will. If you want to be somewhere...POOF...you're there. No wars, everlasting peace in the presence of God Himself.

Many people believe that Heaven exists. It may be in a universe outside of the one we currently occupy, as we have yet to find it in this one. Of course, how much space does a soul occupy? Maybe a million can dance on the head of a pin, in which case heaven could be the size of a basketball...
A world without wars has been many peoples idea of heaven. I have always enjoyed mountains, lakes forests and seashores. I feel as close to heaven as one can get in those places.
Sometimes, I have found heaven in the middle of a large city, in a bookstore, or even in a quiet evening at home with my kids...
So I guess heaven is where ever you are if you are open to it.
Peace.

Heaven is an afterlife concept found in many religions or spiritual philosophies.
Those who believe in heaven generally hold that it (or Hell) is the afterlife destination of many or all humans. In unusual instances, humans have had, according to many testimonies and traditions, personal knowledge of Heaven. They presume this is for the purpose of teaching the rest of humanity about life, Heaven, and God.
In Hinduism
In Hinduism, with its emphasis on reincarnation, the concept of Heaven is not as prominent. While heaven is temporary (until the next birth), the permanent state that Hindus aspire to is Moksha. Moksha is seen as the soul's liberation from the cycle of life and death, a re-establishment in one's own fundamental divine nature and may include union with or joining God.
Entry into heaven (swarga loka) or hell (Naraka) is decided by the Lord of death Yama and his karmic accountant, Chitragupta, who records the good and bad deeds of a person during his lifetime. It must be noted that Yama and Chitragupta are subordinate to the supreme Lord Ishwara (God) and work under his direction. Entry into heaven is only dependent on ones actions in the previous life and is not restricted by faith or religion. The ruler of heaven, where one enjoys the fruits of ones good deeds, is known as Indra and life in that realm is said to include interaction with many celestial beings (gandharvas).

Heaven is a place with no starvation, unlimited drink and eternal worship of God. Don't worry the Bible says there will be a final war and then judgement, so if you believe in Jesus you will go to heaven, if not, you know where...

Heaven is a loony bin. The rest of us sane people will not be there. It will be just like here on Earth jail is for bad people, so I guess that's what hell is, a big jail. Loony farm is for crazy people. that is what heaven will be for. The rest of us will be free to do what we want.
