Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Bahrain receives presentation from Raffles City Bahrain

His Highness Shaikh Salman bin Hamad bin Isa Al-Khalifa today received an introduction to Bahrain's most luxurious mixed use development, Raffles City Bahrain.

The presentation was held at the Riffa Palace, and was conducted by Mr. Wong Heang Fine, Chief Executive Officer of CapitaLand GCC Holdings Pte. Ltd., along with Raffles City Bahrain's local representatives.

Raffles City Bahrain is owned by the Raffles City Bahrain Fund, which is managed by CapitaLand Bahrain Bay Management Pte. Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of CapitaLand.

His Highness was introduced to the development - which will comprise approximately 20% of the built up area of Bahrain Bay - and shown the unique architectural concept, designed by globally acclaimed architect Rafael Viñoly.

Bahrain has been selected as the first GCC country to host the international Raffles City brand development.

The mixed use community will comprise over 600 beautifully sculptured high-rise luxurious apartments, 47 limited edition landscaped sky villas, penthouses, high-end retail and 5-star serviced residences.

Commenting on the occasion, Mr. Wong Heang Fine said,

"We are honoured to give His Highness the first viewing of Raffles City Bahrain, and we felt that now was an opportune time since the project is well underway with piling already over 25% complete. Raffles City Bahrain will be an iconic waterfront development, combining unsurpassed luxury living, fine dining and exclusive shopping in one uniquely designed location. We offer our sincere thanks to His Highness for hosting us and extending their hospitality to our team."


Raffles City is a CapitaLand real estate brand, renowned on the international property scene as prime integrated developments.

Each of the Raffles City developments varies in composition, but they are consistent in offering quality in both design and facilities.

The descriptor "city" signifies the central location and integrated nature of these developments.

They are located in "gateway cities" such as Raffles City Singapore and Raffles City Shanghai, which are already complete, and the four others which are underway, including Beijing, Chengdu, Hangzhou and Bahrain.
