Bahrain

Bahrain, a small Persian Gulf state comprising 33 natural islands, offers a blend of modernity and ancient heritage. Its capital, Manama, while ultra-modern, is rich with historical sites and cultural treasures that trace back to prehistoric civilizations and a pearl-fishing legacy. Visitors can explore white-sand beaches and take boat trips, or delve into the past by visiting ancient forts, archaeological ruins, and bustling old souks. The desert dunes and UNESCO-protected oyster beds, where one can dive for pearls, add to the diverse experiences available in this compact kingdom.
