Qatar is a small but very beautiful and luxurious Arab country. I am a fan of Qatar and it is beauty. Located on the coast of Persian gulf, Doha is the capital of Qatar. It is also a major place in Qatar and mostly tourists visit and stay in Doha only. There are many reasons to visit Qatar but in this post, I am sharing top 9 reasons to visit Qatar:
Top 9 Reasons to Visit Qatar
1) Luxury
Yes, Qatar is luxurious. The most expensive brands in the world, beautiful skyscrapers, luxurious hotels and resorts, artificial islands, gorgeous cars and lots of money, Qatar has it all.
2) Arabian Nights Vibes
If you are a fan of Aladdin and have grown up reading Arabian nights tales, you must visit Qatar once. With the beautiful deserts, the traditional bazaars and the old Arab town charm, Qatar is surely going to impress you in many ways.
3) Shopping
Since almost every renowned brand has a shop in Qatar, it automatically becomes an ideal place for shopping. And not just branded, but Qatar is also good for local Arab handicrafts and apparels.
4) Food
Qatar has some of the most amazing restaurants with the best kind of cuisines. From Arabian dishes to Indian, Italian, Chinese and almost every kind of cuisine, this country is simply amazing for foodies.
5) Culture Insight
Qatar is a perfect place to get an insight about the Islamic culture and traditions. Not just the museums but just by spending a few days here, you will learn a lot of this beautiful culture.
6) Souq Waqif
I am including a separate point for Souq Waqif not just because I personally love it, but also because it deserves to be on the list of reasons to visit Qatar. This is a bazaar of Qatar that has it all, from shops to restaurants to bird market, jugglers, magicians, ice cream parlours et al.
7) Desert Safari & Camping
Deserts of Qatar are very less crowded, making it ideal for tourists to enjoy safari and camping. The south-east part of Doha has the sand dunes along the Gulf of Basra. You can stay in tents, stargaze whole night and enjoy the sea glimmering during the sunrise.
8) Beaches
The beaches of Qatar are amazingly beautiful. If you want to explore a beach destination but not a tropical one, then Qatar should be your choice. The beaches with white sands makes it even more beautiful. Also, these beaches are neat and clean and one can spend time in serenity here.
9) Mixed bag of enjoyment
Qatar is one country that can give you the enjoyment of deserts, beaches, old Arab towns and luxury city lights. This country has it all and that too not very from each other. For instance, my country India is rich in culture, tradition and variety of landscapes but since the country is so huge, you need a lot of time and money to explore each type of place, may it be desert, beach, plains, plateaus or jungles. But in Qatar, you can explore as everything is mainly at drivable distance.
