Bahrain: A Pearl in the Arabian Gulf - History, Modernity, and Tradition

Join us as we journey across Bahrain to reveal its rich history as a global trade center, diverse cultural mix, modern economic rise, natural and manmade attractions, and flavorful fusion cuisine. 

Our video provides an overview of Bahrain's origins as the prosperous Dilmun society back in 3000BC, through different eras of rule by powerful empires, Portuguese control, regional dynasties, and finally independence in 1971. We explore how oil riches and Gulf alliances shaped its economy into a regional banking and finance hub. 

We highlight top sights ranging from the National Museum and Grand Mosque to the mystifying Tree of Life and upscale Amwaj islands. We also profile signature Bahraini dishes like seafood machbous, stuffed lamb, and saffron-sweetened desserts. Captivating and complex - this is the Kingdom of Bahrain!
