This is really nice. The only place that impressed me in Doha and should have any city. You can find a good restaurant to eat or sisha...is perfect.
If you are here for a day or for a few hours only, go to Souq Waqif and Corniche and you will have some good memories to take home.
Our hotel was located 7 minute walk from the Souq and hence we went there there numerous times during our stay in Doha.
I have visited lots of Souqs in Morrocco, Turkey, Eygpt and parts of the Middle East and this is by far the most polite, friendly and clean.
Very well refurbished. You feel like you have stepped back...

spent a couple of hours there. go there in the evening, pretty quiet that friday morning. cab from the airport is about 25 local ccy. takes about 20 minutes .

Nice place, great food and shopping. A must see market in Doha. If you are a sheesha lover then its the place. No expensive as well. Spend a day here.
