Bahrain Fort

We visited another fort this week.  This is the Bahrain Fort, Built in stages through several centuries.  First built in the 15th century and then built and rebuilt several times through the 17th century. This is a major picture dump, and I may not caption them all. The kids had the camera for the day, so there is a good mix of pictures.

The entrance to the Fort

 We could not figure out how these little cubbies might be used.

 Cool series of arched doorways.

 Munchkin took lots of pictures of the signs, these are the first and only interpretive signs seen at a historic location.

 This is the interior of the 17th century portion of the fort with reproduced grass huts in the rear.

 The Grass Huts

 Love the city skyline beyond the old fort.

 This is Bahrain, Random bags of trash on the site. Munchkin

 Well that was part of an Art exhibit. Lots of mirrors.

 Arched ceiling above the well.

 The view towards the water.

 The cool shadow of the 5 of us.  I just thought it was cool.

 As we were leaving, we saw these cool houses that were painted with lots of bright colors and designes.
