These are the amazing things I learned from Bro. Eli Soriano's teaching on the above-mentioned topic in addition to my own personal research as well.
There are some parts of Heaven that we cannot perfectly describe as they are. The Bible gave us a glimpse of what it looks like and we do not have the complete knowledge of how Heaven looks like. It is beyond human comprehension and Heaven or Paradise as we would call it too has been described by John when he was taken up in the Spirit. We still don't know how the entire Heaven looks like.
Revelation 4:1-11 (NIV)
After this I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.”
It's a long passage and I only quoted the first verse but we can do justice to it by reading the whole 11 verses to understand What John saw in Heaven when he was taken up in his spirit. He saw a throne and he saw the 24 elders too laying their crowns and giving honour to God who lives forever. This is just a peek into what goes on in Heaven and it didn't capture it's entirety as to what Heaven really looks like or what goes on there.
We don't have a vivid illustration of Heaven but we have clues here and there to know what is to be expected in Heaven.
Romans 8:18 (NIV)
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.
We know that God's Glory would be revealed in us. We will be in God's Presence forever. It would be a place of joy which was why the Bible said every tears will be wiped away as there would be no death, nor mourning, nor pain or crying because old things have passed away. God’s glory will outshine the sun and the moon. His glory will be on full display, so there will never again be a need for the moon or sun because God's brilliance will be the only source of everlasting light.
Reference: Revelation 21:23-25.
God created the Heavens and the earth and we can see how beautiful everything is. We can expect Heaven to be more beautiful because that is where God dwells. The image of how Heaven looks like would be made known when God comes to take His own. Let it remain a surprise and a motivation for us to never miss such a beauty and glory.
1 Corinthians 2:9 (NIV)
However, as it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived”— the things God has prepared for those who love him—
