Bahrain, the little gem of the Arabian Gulf, is a country with more personality stuffed into its 765.3 km² than a clown car full of jesters. Think of an urban planner with a quirky sense of humor and an artist’s flair, creating a panorama of dazzling skyscrapers and enchanting souks in one brush stroke. The locals have uncanny ability to balance tradition with modernity, riding their camels in the morning and their Ferraris after afternoon tea. Despite occasionally scorching weather, you might call it the 'cool kid' of the Middle East, chill enough to let you enjoy camel racing and Formula 1 on the same weekend.
