If you want to know what the people from Qatar like to do, you want to visit Katara. This place is all about promoting cultural awareness within the country. This 1,000,000 square meter establishment hosts all kinds of big activities like festivals, exhibitions, seminars, concerts and all forms of artistic expressions.
You couldn't ask for a better view of downtown Doha from my hotel. I personally really enjoyed the architecture of the city and was intrigued by the way the buildings looked. It had a modern feel, as you can see from the picture. I was also a big fan of the color of the lights, different from what you would see while looking at downtown Seattle.
The Qatar National Museum is a great place to learn more about where they country came from and what its all about. You'll learn lots about the country's past; where it came from and how it came about. You will also learn about where they see themselves going in the future. Not to mention you get to experience some pretty incredible architecture. This interlocking disc design, inspired by the desert rose, is unlike anything I have ever seen before.
The Museum of Islamic Art is another place you want to check out to learn more about the culture experienced in this part of the world. Not only will you see paintings ad sculptures of the Islamic people, but you will also get to experience Arabic music.
