BAHRAIN

Bahrain is the ancient site of the land of Dilmun, and
was the religious centre to Sumerians, Babylonians and
Assyrians at different times. With centuries upon centuries
of human habitation packed into one compact site many
legends have enveloped the land of Bahrain.
Today, it’s landscape is a tapestry of marvelous old sites
and colorful traditional markets dotted between modern
skyscrapers and buildings. Get lost in the souks around
Bab al Bahrain and enjoy the nosegays of cardamom
coffee, sizzling kebabs and perfumes. While relatively
small in population, land area and resources, Bahrain has
achieved a high level of social and economic development
over a short period of time.
