As one becomes acquainted with Bahrain, its history proves always to be among the high interest points. With theories ranging from the center of civilization to the biblical garden of Eden, Bahrain's 5000 years of traceable history has led such scholarly personalities as Doctor Gettrey Bibby to come in search for the lost civilization of Dilmun. Bahrain has, throughout history, been the focal point of interest for the Arabs, Persians, Greeks, Portuguese, Turks, and British. Fresh vegetables imported from Lebanon and Egypt greet the early morning buyers. Because of the high salinity level the soil, Bahrain must import most of its foodstuffs, however, Bahrain is famed for its pearls and dates. adwlwauio, In I 1 'I ' A tw ,,,, 9 agwcfm ' f Tiff .,' fm - f 'N ' 4l2w,y, ' ' 3, ,, -,f-,,tkf,,ff, V l ' l , , , l it f ,ff . , r Q r...:4:...x..-f..N.,..- -.?, .Q ,. -' ' Y , H5 '- kw4L-.- V .

Bahrain leaves no one untouched. For some its is a shock, for others it is a pleasant walk through streets where truly East has met West in a strange harmony. Western suits and modish flairs with tye dyed shirts offset the blazing whiteness of the traditional thobs. Through the narrow streets meant for man and his beast of burden, Mercedes, Volvos and Camaros stand as a visible sign of 20th century change. Walking down Gold Street or browsing through the SUQ fcovered marketl, a curious flavour of modern-day merchandise and 17th century Arab sales tactics leaves both merchant and customer in a pleasant state of satisfaction.
