Jannusan (Arabic: جنوسان) is a village in the Northern Governorate of Bahrain. It is known for its gardens and orchards, which are frequented by tourists. The area's historical catering to tourists has caused grievances between the Bahraini government and the local populace, with residents complaining of inadequate housing and cramped living spaces. In response, the government has built and subsidized, in conjunction with the country's major banks, social housing in the village.
