From aromatic spices in age-old souks to artificial islands, discover Qatar, one of the wealthiest countries in the world.
Your first sight of Doha will be its ambitious skyline with stained glass towers and cylindrical masterpieces that light up gold come evening. The second may be the extraordinary sunset view over West Bay from the Museum of Islamic Art and then a peek at the brightest stars piercing a midnight sky over moored yachts. Chanel and Prada boutiques are tucked inside glamorous malls and drum roll signals the start of a mighty Arabian sword dance. Qatar holidays may be more of a stopover than a stay-put, but this super wealthy city of glamour, gold and pearls is the perfect way to break up a journey.
We’ve been to Qatar and can tell you the best places to build up a bank of impressive photographs – try the helipad at Shangri-La for incredible city views, a sunset shot of the sparkling half-moons and domed roof of the State Grand Mosque and where to capture a glittering restaurant decorated with a thousand tiny Iranian mirrors in the Souk Waqif. Holidays to Qatar are a whimsical blend of old and new taking you dune bashing through the desert, sailing by dhow across the Persian Gulf and kayaking in The Pearl.
