This morning we start with a visit to the Grand Mosque, a beautiful example of Arabian Islamic architecture (Ladies must cover their head with scarf and full sleeve covering their shoulders and men in trousers).

We then proceed to the Bahrain national museum, which is situated, on the intersection of the Sheikh Hamad Manama-Muharraq causeway and King Faisal Highway, Bahrain National Museum built in 1988, the $34 million complex offers a comprehensive view of Bahrain through the ages. Arguably the most interesting of the exhibits in nine halls is a reconstructed ancient burial mound dating to around 2800 BC. The mound was plucked from the desert and reassembled in the museum. Other fascinating exhibits depict life in the Dilmun era, 19-20th century pearl-diving scenes as well as community life. The museum is a virtual treasure hose of history.

You then go to the Museum pier for a short relaxing boat journey to the Bu Maher Fort. Here you will get a sneak peek at the new UNESCO world heritage site that is slowly unfolding. This new pearling pathway is a tribute to the famous jeweller Jacques Cartier. His journey to Bahrain in the 1920’s to get the best pearls in the world for his exceptional jewellery is part of this pearling pathway. “El Bahrain” means two seas. The fresh water springs in the salt-water sea surrounding Bahrain gives the pearls of Bahrain a very special luster and roundness. This two-sea feature, which is unique to Bahrain, was instrumental in ensuring that the Bahraini pearls were the best in the world. There was much sort after by the House of Cartier and other famous jewellers around the world. The entire pearling pathway when finished will be a 3.5 km long, It will consist of 17 buildings, 3 oyster beds located in the nearby sea and the seafront Bu Maherfort. This is a wonderful testimony to Bahrain’s rich pearling history, which dates back to 2000 BC.

We venture into the desert where stands a broad shady, mature mesquite tree in solitary splendor. The loan tree in a sea of sand almost seems like a mirage. To this day the tree source of water remains a mystery. Some believe it gets its nourishment from an underground spring but that does not explain the complete lack of vegetation in the vicinity. Local lore dates the tree in millennium botanist say it may be several hundred years old.

Later visit a museum dedicated to Oil. Bahrain was the first country in the gulf where Oil was struck, in 1932, and the museum allows you to trace the discovery of what’s become the region’s best – known export.
