Corniche: Doha's Al-Corniche is a popular spot for visitors and locals alike to enjoy the city's coastline. Take a walk along the promenade alongside the boat and take in the views of Palm Tree Island and the city's modernist skyscrapers.
Museum of Islamic Arts: This is Doha's most prominent museum, with a collection of art and artefacts from Asia, Africa, Europe and of course the Middle East. The museum is most known however for its exterior architecture.
