Bahrain, often called "the pearl of the Arabian Gulf," is a small island nation. Traditionally known for its oil industry, it has diversified its economy through tourism, drawing visitors with its rich heritage, bustling souks, vibrant arts scene, and a unique blend of modern and traditional architecture.
The archipelago, made up of over 30 islands, is located between Saudi Arabia and Qatar, and is connected to Saudi Arabia by the King Fahd Causeway. It offers a one-of-a-kind experience, from the UNESCO-listed Qal'at al-Bahrain to the cosmopolitan energy of its capital, Manama.
