Bahrain in 1970 - The old Juffair and the gulf hotel which has doubled in size and and put a convention center next door. There was no bridge to Saudi Arabia either so they had to use boats to get of the island…















Bahrain in 2009 - This picture is taken from one of our sites on the 52 level, I have labeled some places of interest, but if you compare where the gulf hotel is to the picture below you can see how much land reclamation has happened on the island, and how small it must have been in the past and how much construction work has happened. Jaffair is below all the text and is where all the apratments have been developed.
