The biggest tourist destination, since 1989, in the middle East, Qatar is known for its malls, skyscrapers and shopping scene. Nonetheless, there is so much to the country than just shopping. A fine taste to the world of Arabs and others are offered through the sand dunes, seascapes, historic fort and souqs. The country is definitely a treasure of beauty, culture and traditions. With Qatar tour packages, tourists are offered a fine experience.
Qatar is quickly emerging as one of the most appealing destinations in the Arabian Peninsula. It’s one of the smallest and richest countries in the world, which is a result of the nation’s oil and gas boom over the past few decades. This boom has led to rapid growth in the capital city Doha and its emergence as a tourist destination. Doha has transformed from a port town to a metropolis with a new skyscraper joining the skyline seemingly every month. The man-made island of The Pearl-Qatar epitomizes the city’s newfound cosmopolitan allure. Built on an old pearl diving site, it’s home to a mix of commercial and residential districts all along a 4km-long constructed island in the Gulf. Its mix of restaurants, hotels, and beach resorts is among the trendiest spots in the city. But Doha hasn’t lost its connection to tradition in the midst of urban growth. The marketplace of Souq Waqif offers a chance to travel back in time at stalls and shops peddling everything from spices to gold to arts and crafts. The city’s many museums also offer great insight into the nation’s history.
