音频游览 Doha: Souq Waqif and the Corniche

Do you love exploring a country from the inside? Head to the local, colorful, and truly authentic oriental bazaar in Doha. The "Souq Waqif" market offers a glimpse of what Qatar was like before the oil fields were discovered. Here, everything is blended: the aromas of spices, incense, oriental oils, roasted meat and flatbreads, hookah, and the smells of freshly squeezed juices. You can visit the bird market and admire parrots, canaries, and various other creatures. At the bazaar, you can buy spices and sweets, souvenirs and fabrics, meet locals, and enjoy the architecture. Additionally, there are several art galleries on site. If you are not fond of oriental cuisine, you will find good restaurants offering European dishes. Don't let the evening heat scare you; every street café and restaurant has fans creating a pleasant breeze.
