Bahrain’s rich history is deeply intertwined with the pearl trade and nowhere is this more evident than in Muharraq, the island’s former capital and a UNESCO-listed hub of Bahraini heritage. With the recent opening of the new Pearl Museum (Siyadi House), this legacy has been given a new home - one that celebrates the kingdom’s storied past while preserving its cultural and economic significance.
On your visit to this glorious building you will get to see some of the tools and traditions that made Bahraini pearls among the most coveted in the world, while of course being able to gape at stunning pearl jewelry from the earliest of times till now.
Come, wander and soak up this architectural and historic 'gem'!
Why not spend the afternoon wandering around Muharraq, visiting the Pearl Museum and a few other sites then heading to Al Sedra, a new spot nestled right next to the Pearling Path Visitors Center in Muharraq, for a bite.
