Bahrain, which is close to Saudi Arabia, is a place where tradition and modernity coexist. The standard entrance to this “Island of Golden Smiles” is the compact yet efficient Bahrain International Airport. You can book a London cab-like taxi at the airport, which will take you hassle-free to the hotel of your choosing. It is conveniently located away from the busy Manama City Center, where practically all business is done.
Bahrain is renowned as a shopping haven. The main destination for tourists is the Manama Gold Suq. Gold jewelry and decorations made by hand are inexpensive to buy. Tourists and foreigners congregate at the contemporary World Trade Center, Seef Mall, and City Center to buy the most recent designs from the top fashion designers. The Manama Suq sells traditional handcrafted brass decorations and other items with Arabic design influences. To increase the number of visitors to the international island, the Chamber of Commerce frequently organizes “sales.”
Visitors can get a brief history of the prehistoric Bahrain at the Bahrain National Museum, which is close to the Manama Causeway. At the Beit Al-Quran, one can view and admire old and unusual Qurans. The remnants of its colonial past can be seen in the historic Portuguese forts in Muharraq and Budaiya. A lengthy seaside public park is available in the island kingdom where guests can stroll slowly while taking in the sunrise and sunset. Dhows, or traditional Arabic boats, can be rented to visit the small island coasts.
Spring and fall are the finest seasons to visit Bahrain. One of major draws are the Formula One events. Kings and other royals frequently attend the prominent event. Festivals lasting a full week are planned for visitors. Additionally planned are airborne displays and fireworks. The wealthy can also access private spas and lodging. Private villas with a Mediterranean flair are available by the beach at The Ritz-Carlton Hotel for your enjoyment. The hotel can be summed up in in one word: luxurious.
Business and pleasure collide in the Kingdom of Bahrain. The Middle East’s financial center is Manama City. Trustworthy banks and investment firms had already established themselves in the nation.
