Bahrain Fort Review

You can feel connection to ancient times walking there definitely worth visiting the vibes are great there, serene and away from city life, my kids were so curious to explore it and they loved it

we had a lovely visit to the fort as it was nearing sunset.. its a very impressive building steeped in history

Outdoors, there are not many tourists under the big sun. The stone castle, the castle did not see the house for a large number of people, the security guards were hiding in the only stone house with air conditioning. The ancient village ruins are around the castle, and you can also see the various processes of the ancient Arabs making coconut sugar. Free entry and play.

The Fort Bahrain is a world heritage site recognized by UNESCO and its English name is QALAT AL BAHRAIN SITE AND MUSEUM. The castle is located on the coastal hills of the Arabian Gulf and covers an area of more than 17.5 hectares. It was once the capital of the ancient country of Dilmun (DILMUN) and is also a cultural capital of Sumer. A new museum was built in 2008 near the castle, displaying artifacts from various periods excavated in the castle and nearby sites, so that one side can learn about Bahrain and the Arab region. The castle and museum are open daily for limited hours. If you are interested in visiting, it is best to arrive around 10 am, visit the museum first, and then visit the castle. The Dilmon Cultural Site is just outside the castle and can be seen during the walk. If you go to visit, it is best to confirm whether you are really interested, the second is to do your homework. Otherwise, I am afraid that I will be disappointed. If you are interested, look at the thick earth wall and look at the Arabian Sea. Maybe you can hook a picture of the vast, merchant ships shuttled in my mind. There is a reappearance of the imperial era. Fort Bahrain is not far from the center of Manama, about 7 kilometers. The local bus is not very developed, and there are basically private cars. So you can only take a taxi, and you can get a one-way car from the city center to there. It costs about 20 Bahrain dinars, which is about 150 yuan. The museum is closed after 2 pm and can only be visited on the periphery. Fort Bahrain is not far from Seef Mall. It is difficult to encounter cars around Bahrain Fort, so it is best to reserve a taxi phone number and book the return car in advance. Otherwise, you have to walk a short distance to the nearby commercial area.

I like it very much. I have been there many times. Free! There is a museum next to it for a fee.
