📍 Destination Overview
Doha, capital of Qatar, sits on the Persian Gulf's Qatari coast, transformed in two decades from a fishing village into a world-class metropolis. West Bay's towers shape a futuristic skyline, and I.M. Pei's Museum of Islamic Art holds a millennium of Islamic artistry. Souq Waqif keeps its Arabian bazaar charm, and the 2022 World Cup put Doha in the global spotlight.
