Bahrain is famous for its fabulous forts and could add another tourism attraction in the shape of castles, classic sculptures and even stages of intricate art work ... made of sand.
Award-winning sand artist Dr Sudarsan Pattnaik believes the kingdom should capitalise on its coastline covering to boost eco-tourism by investing in a museum of creations the wind would normally blow away.
“In Europe, schools use sand to help children develop architectural skills – we have land in Bahrain where students can practise making sculptures,” said the Guinness World Record (2017) holder for building the tallest sand castle at 48 feet.
