A country steeped in tradition, Qatar is all about mesmerizing culture, cuisine and sand dunes. The capital Doha boasts a spectacular glass-and-steel skyline. It’s home to an emerging culinary scene as well and is home to the Museum of Islamic Art. Intrepid travellers can go dune-bashing in the desert or watch camels race across the sand. Culture enthusiasts, on the other hand, can visit the gorgeous souqs (markets), such as Souq Waqif. No matter where your interests lie, a walk along Doha Corniche and a dhow ride are just some of the ways to spend an afternoon and evening. End your day at one of the many sophisticated restaurants that now lie all over the country. While you’re vacationing here, why not stay at one of the country’s most famous hotels?
