This page will be definitely interesting to all those of you who have left the Island a couple of years back… and also for those who consider moving onto Bahrain – a small yet magnificent Isle.

Durrat Al Bahrain – A new Isle (artificial Isle constructed)

This Project commenced in the Year 2004.

Citizens of Bahrain state that

“It’s an island and a city, it’s the desert and the sea, it’s a holiday and a home, it’s a place to be together, it’s escapism and adventure. It’s one world that offers you endless possibilities. It is a place like no other.”

Located on the south coast of Bahrain, this 21 km² master development has been created across a cluster of 15 spectacular islands. Durrat Al Bahrain is located 54 kilometers (33.7 miles) from Bahrain’s International Airport and is accessible by a two-lane highway linking it from Manama, which enables residents and visitors to drive to Durrat Al Bahrain in around 35 minutes.

Bahrain’s Financial Harbour

Bahrain’s Financial Harbour (BFH) is currently one of the Middle East’s most exciting property developments. This project is mainly designed for the international finance sector.

The Harbour district covers 380,000 square metres in Bahrain’s waterfront.

Bahrain’s WTC intergrated with wind turbines

The picture shows that the Bahrain World Trade Center (BWTC) installed the world’s first integrated wind turbine. This new building should launch as the “Kingdom’s leading mixed-use commercial development”. It will have three integrated wind turbines. This is the first time anywhere in the world that large-scale wind turbines are part of a building.

The three massive wind turbines, measuring 29 meter in diameter, are supported by bridges spanning between the BWTC’s two 240-meter high towers.

The Bahrain World Trade Center (BWTC) project is situated on the Manama (Bahrain’s capital city) waterfront. The sail-shaped twin office towers is a 50 storeys high building, making it Bahrain’s tallest skyscraper. It will also include the Sheraton hotel and a huge mall.
