Among the modern architecture currently available in Bahrain, the World Trade Center certainly stands out for its unique look, and does not fail to impress whoever sees it.
The first time I saw the World Trade Center in Manama, it was all shiny and looked very new in the late December sun. The adjacent mall had a glass window providing for a great view of the towers. Three huge turbine blades were turning between the two towers, attached to three enormous bridges connecting the two identical buildings. What at first seemed to be a decoration on the building, or an interesting addition to a twin tower structure, the wind turbine blades turned out to provide energy for the building. Probably using the wind coming from the Persian Gulf, the turbines provide part of the energy consumed inside the buildings.
