Tour Guide To QATAR



To visit Qatar, first look at the description of attractions and places where to go and decide on your possible itinerary. Secondly, find a trusted travel professional to arrange your tour.

Umm Salal Ali is the most famous archaeological sight of the country. The mounds, which are now studied by archaeologists, are very old and probably date back to the third millennium BC. The small town of Al Khor is an open-air museum consisting of many mosques scattered throughout the town, old towers and traditional buildings. One of the reasons for stopping in Al Khor is an extremely picturesque view of the ocean.
Climatic features contribute to the outlook of Qatar and help preserve its historical and cultural monuments. The main attraction of the country is its rich history, as evidenced by ever expanding archeological excavations, which reveal traces of ancient civilizations on the Qatari territory. Milder, than in neighboring countries, Islamic traditions, unique culture and magnificent products of local artisans contribute to the positive image of an important tourist destination.
Special attention is drawn to the museums of the capital. In recent years, the ancient land of Qatar finally began to open its secrets to the researchers, and this area can truly be called another cradle of the development of humanity in Asia. Qatar National Museum is housed in the palace of Sheikh Abdullah bin Mohammed. The main exhibition of the museum is a two-level aquarium with local underwater fauna. No less interesting are the materials about the Arab maritime expeditions, and the period of discovering a sea route to India by the Europeans.
