About Bahrain (BAH)

About Bahrain

Bahrain is an Arab island nation in the Persian Gulf. It is an archipelago consisting of the Bahrain Island and several other small islands surrounding it. The Kingdom of Bahrain, as it is officially known, was one of the first Gulf States to discover oil, but its rapidly declining oil reserves forced the country to diversify its economy. Today, the economy relies mostly on tourism, hospitality, retail, and processing crude oil from neighbouring states. Bahrain has also started investing heavily in finance and has endeavoured to become a leading regional banking centre, especially with respect to Islamic finance.

Bahrain is believed to be the site of the ancient Dilmun civilization. In the late 1700s, the Al-Khalifa royal family took over Bahrain. In order to secure their holdings, they entered a series of treaties with the United Kingdom and became a protectorate of the British. Bahrain attained its independence in 1971. Leaving the Emirates status, Bahrain was declared a kingdom in 2002. The vast numbers of expats coming into the country for their livelihood had people talking about Bahrain as a country showcasing immense cultural diversity.

 

How to reach Bahrain

 

By Air – The Bahrain International Airport serves as the nerve centre to its national carrier Gulf Air. Almost all major airlines offer daily flights to Bahrain from cities like Delhi, Hyderabad, Chennai, and Kochi. While travelling from outside of India, one can hop on a flight from all other major international hotspots like Bangkok, Singapore, Melbourne, and Cairo.

 

By Road – The Saudi–Bahraini Transport Company (SAPTCO) is the official provider of bus services in Bahrain. They run eight buses daily from Riyadh to Manama. Reservations should be made ahead of time as the seats fill up fast. One can also drive through any of the many inter-state highways that connect Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. Rented vehicles are not advisable as it involves a ton of paperwork.

 

By Water – Various luxury cruises connect many Gulf nations, including Bahrain. A travel planned well ahead of time can even offer experiences such as feeling like royalty in the sea.

 

What to do in Bahrain

 

The discovery of oil in the country led to expeditious modernisation, and within years, desert tents transformed into skyscrapers over 300-metre high. People now visit Bahrain to see the ruins of the old Dilmun civilizations, the mighty fortress of Al-Qat Bahrain, the famous scuba diving sites in the country, and the whimsical desert town in the land. Bahrain is also one of the prestigious locations across the world, which hosts the Formula 1 Grand Prix, held every year in the month of April.
