/ Attractions / King Fahad Causeway
Opened
in 1986, this remarkable 15.5 miles (25km) feat of engineering
links Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. It is one of the most expensive
bridges in the world. The causeway traverses Umm Nasan Island,
which is a sanctuary for wildlife, and at halfway point there
is a facility area, including a restaurant, which you can visit
even if you don't travel the whole distance to Saudi Arabia.
