Museum of Islamic Art
Located on an artificial island off the coast of Doha, the Museum of Islamic Art showcases the fine arts and crafts of Islam in a grand and imaginative way. The museum showcases the changing paths of Islamic art over 1400 years, including paintings, glasswork, metalwork, ceramics, textiles and manuscripts covering important periods such as Mughal and Safavid. The museum's unique exterior shape quickly made it a Doha icon, consisting primarily of simple white limestone, a main building with a unique geometric shape, a wing and a large courtyard. The main building is five stories high, including ceramic craft exhibition area, glass craft exhibition area, textile exhibition area, etc. The history of the exhibits spans from the 7th century to the 19th century, and some of them can be called treasures of Islamic art.

Here, typical activities include taking a leisurely stroll along the marina and canals, watching yachts, browsing designer boutiques, and choosing a waterfront restaurant in the evening to watch the sunset; the island also offers yacht cruises and water sports.Doha · 7.9 km from Lusail

Souq Waqif is one of the best places to experience the culture of Doha. The traditional market has beautiful old-style buildings, narrow streets, and a lively atmosphere, especially in the evening. There are many shops selling spices, perfumes, handicrafts, souvenirs, and traditional clothing. I also enjoyed trying local food at the restaurants and cafés around the market. Walking through the souq was relaxing, and there was always something interesting to see. The area was clean, well maintained, and easy to explore on foot. It is a great place to take photos, buy unique gifts, and enjoy the local culture. I would definitely recommend Souq Waqif to anyone visiting Doha because it offers an authentic and memorable experience.

I really, really, really love this place. The amphitheatre is something else. The floor air condition at the outdoor restaurant is something I've never seen before and a superb idea. I love it!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

This is a road with great views. First of all, you can see the city skyline from afar. The Qatar Museum of Art, a masterpiece of Master Mei, is also on the seaside road. Secondly, you can run along the beach at night to enjoy the night view of the city.

At the Lusail Stadium, a golden bowl in the desert, more than 90,000 spectators witnessed the birth of the 2022 Qatar World Cup champion.
After 180 minutes of fierce battle, twists and turns, and exciting moments, the Panbos Eagles-Argentina won the World Cup for the third time, and it was well deserved.
Messi smiled, Di Maria cried, and the fans were excited~

Not much, but it's definitely worth it for people who like excitement. I went with my kids, and didn't play the two most exciting ones.

Everyone must pay attention: the opening hours of the Qatar National Mosque are from 08:00 to 12:00 every day. Visitors are not accepted at other times. Everyone must pay attention to avoid returning empty-handed like us.

Spread over 93,297 square meters (1004240 square feet), the Dafna Park is one of the most significant public gardens of the city. Established in 1990, the park is a great place to embark on leisurely strolls, take in some fresh air or simply spend some time with your family. Visitors to the park can see their children enjoy themselves in the children’s play area, go on boat rides along the Doha Bay or enjoy delicious snacks at the park’s onsite cafeteria. Other services at the park include free internet access, water coolers, and parking. If you want to escape your worries for a little while, then certainly consider heading to Dafna Park.
