Today we will start our services in Bahrain, a small country of 765 km2 that has always had great historical importance, around 10.30 am with a visit to MANAMA, the capital of this small country. We´ll visit the historic district of Muharraq, where, in its pedestrian alleys, we will find some of the most beautiful historical buildings in the country, such as royal residences and houses of rich pearl merchants that have been beautifully restored. By coach we will contour the cornice and include the entrance to Beit Al Quran, the museum about the Koran, Muslims’ holy book. We will also visit the fantastic National Museum of Bahrain that will allow us to delve into the art, ethnography and traditions of this country and understand the importance it had throughout history. Free time at the mall so you can have lunch in their food court.In the afternoon we will visit with our guide the impressive Al-Fateh Mosque, the main mosque in the country. Afterwards we will leave Manama for QALAT AL BARHEIN, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, an impressive fortress by the sea inhabited for 4000 years, although the current castle was built by the Portuguese. Then, we enter one of the most important oil production areas in the world, between refineries and pipelines we stop near the first oil extraction well opened in the country. We will also stop at the "tree of life", which, with its over 500 years of life in the desert, is a symbol in this country. Return to Manama, free time.At the end of the day we will walk through the souk of Manama, with its active life and we will visit Little India, a neighborhood that preserves its traditions, the temple of Krishna and numerous small restaurants of India since over 300,000 inhabitants of Bahrain were born in India.Note: The order of visits may differ.
