At the heart of Downtown Manama
Built in 1949, it once housed the governmentâs administrative offices and overlooked the sea. Sailing merchants used to dock to unload their cargo for commerce. Since then, Bab Al Bahrain has evolved but the Ministry of Culture preserved the building as a cultural landmark and restored it to its former glory. It now accommodates the tourism sector offices and a visitorsâ center for wandering enthusiasts.
Behind Bab Al Bahrain is the old Manama souq. It offers a unique shopping experience, which recalls the trading history of the region. Featuring a vast collection of shops and traditional restaurant settings that will please more than one â from textiles, spices, incense, perfumes, handicrafts, souvenirs and much more. A must-place to visit in Bahrain!
