SEE
With no less than three UNESCO World Heritage sites to its name, Bahrain is a fascinating place to spend time for its history alone. This section takes you on a stroll back in time to 2500 BC via ancient palaces, temples and tombs, moving on to 16th-century forts, 19th-century courtyard houses, and finally the 20th century via contemporary art.

Looking for a special gift? Take your pick from our roundup of brilliant makers reinventing time-worn traditions, or pick up the ultimate souvenir, a natural pearl.
EAT
From the simple shawarma to sophisticated international fare, Khaleeji to Korean, you'll find it all on a plate in Bahrain, and our resident foodie has eaten her way around the country to bring you the best of what's on offer. If you're after the tastiest tikka in town, you'll find it in the Street food section, and for a slap-up meal, turn to our roundup of top spots in dining district Adliya. Sahtayn!
