King Fahd Causeway, International bridge between Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia and Al Jasra, Bahrain
The King Fahd Causeway extends 25 kilometers across the Gulf of Bahrain, supported by 536 concrete pylons and seven large embankments.
The construction of this international bridge began in July 1981 following an agreement between both nations, with completion and inauguration in November 1986.
Middle Island, an artificial formation within the causeway, contains a mosque, gardens, and restaurants where travelers experience both Saudi and Bahraini influences.
The bridge processes approximately 25,000 vehicles daily through its customs and immigration facilities, with separate lanes for departures and arrivals.
The structure incorporates multiple artificial islands that function as border control stations, creating a maritime border checkpoint between the two kingdoms.
