Al-Awali exhibition documents the operation of the world's first district central air-conditioning system

Awali, Bahrain ·

The exhibition at the Bahrain National Museum traces the town's history from the first oil discoveries in the Jabal al-Dukhan area to the laying of its first foundations in 1934. It presents Awali as an integrated model town that combines housing, workplaces and services under one urban plan.

Bahrain began producing oil in the 1930s, and Awali grew up as a town built for workers in the oil industry.
