Hard to judge by those photos. But I'll say 4/10. Looks like a mid-sized city in the midwest, nothing special..

I guess I'm not alone in judging based on 2 pics. Unfortunately, my score is 4 because I wasn't sure if there were more buildings or if the second pic was basically the core dowtown area.

It just gets better. Honestly with the exception of a few good pics, this thread is getter better at postin really crap pics of Bahrain, not sayin this cause this is my country. I find it funny that out of all the possible pics that you could choose from, those are the ones that were posted. Let me dig some nicer pics just to give people a better impression of the place.

For a city its size Manama has a fantastic skyline! The buildings are beautiful and in general its seems like a very beautiful city. I'd love to visit sometime. 10/10

been to Manama.. they got some nice buildings but I don't find the city as "urban" as many other capital cities.. lots of foreigners especially South Asians (99% of people on the streets) and Filipinos.. plus everybody likes to stare..
