In 1945 Bab Al Bahrain (Arabic: باب البحرين‎, Bāb al-Baḥrayn) means Gateway of Bahrain, used to be Bahrain’s Gateway when it was on the edge of water, however due to extensive land reclamation, Bab Al Bahrain is now around 1.5 km from the sea shores in this picture and the new BFH towers which has been built exactly opposite to Bab Al Bahrain are now called the new gateway to Bahrain, known now as Bahrain Financial Harbour.
