Plans to build a $51 million indoor ski resort in Bahrain are back underway after the project came to a halt back in 2007.
Plans to build Bahrain’s first indoor ski slope near the Bahrain International Airport have new life after Bahrain’s Municipalities and Urban Planning Affairs Minister, Dr. Juma Al Ka’abi, and Bahraini investor Fouad Shuwaitar reached an agreement to restart the project last week.
