🗻️ Pearl Roundabout

The Gulf Cooperation Council or GCC Roundabout, known as Pearl Roundabout or Lulu Roundabout, was a roundabout located near the financial district of Manama, Bahrain. The roundabout was named after the pearl monument that previously stood at the site and was destroyed on 18 March 2011 by government forces as part of a crackdown on protesters during the Bahraini uprising of 2011. The roundabout itself was replaced on its site by the Al Farooq Junction in 2017 in a traffic reconfiguration.
