Souq Al Baraha, the Kingdom’s newest shopping and entertainment district, opened its doors to Bahraini citizens, residents and tourists from the GCC and across the globe, in 2021. Conveniently located in Diyar Al Muharraq, it is only 10 minutes away from the Bahrain International Airport, 20 minutes from Manama city centre and 30 minutes from the King Fahad Causeway.

The project provides an exceptional retail experience, combining an authentic cultural souq experience, with modern facilities and world-class amenities. Souq Al Baraha’s carefully designed patio includes a mosque, family entertainment centre, gas station, as well as 686 parking spaces and several air-conditioned areas. With a total leasable area of 13,431 sqm, it houses 468 shops and 20 offices.

The souq’s shaded paths lead visitors through specially designed arched walkways to restaurant areas, fresh fruit and vegetable markets, meat and poultry markets, the gold and sweet market, as well as dedicated family entertainment areas. The market also includes three open patios and extended outdoor spaces to drive community engagement. Maximising on these open spaces, the souq will host national events, heritage theatre performances and entertainment programmes to activate the project and enhance footfall throughout the year. The market has security and maintenance staff 24 hours a day, all days of the week, to ensure the souq maintains security, order, quality and cleanliness.
