2. AQUA PARK QATAR

Aqua Park Qatar is a small, basic water park consisting of a three-storey slide tower featuring five slides from Canadian manufacturer WhiteWater West, a small wave pool and a small lazy river.

Nothing wrong with it, but nothing special either. Although it recently opened in autumn 2010, it was closed when I went there in March 2011 and is due to reopen in April. Expansion is underway.

The good thing is that the brochures call it the ‘first water theme park in Qatar’, which means that there will be a second. The real deal, however, is the reinvented city of Doha itself – ‘The Pearl’ island and the ‘Katara’ cultural village, with its brand-new opera house, feel and look like the very best a theme park could be [www.thethemeparkguy.com]

3. ZUBARA FORT

The Coast Guard used the sturdy fort as a station until the mid 1980s when it was turned into a museum to display findings uncovered in the nearby Al-Zubarah archeological area [ http://www.qatartourism.gov.qa]

7. CORNICHE PROJECT DOHA

The Doha Corniche is a waterfront promenade extending for several kilometers along Doha Bay in the capital city ofDoha, the state of Qatar. Running parallel to the Corniche is Corniche St., a main thoroughfare which connects Doha’s emerging West Bay business district with the south of the city and Doha International Airport. Formed following extensive dredging work carried out during the late 1970s and early 1980s which reshaped Doha’s coastline, the Corniche is today a popular location among walkers, bikers and joggers.

The Corniche used to be an empty stretch of walkway in which the only visible edifice was the Sheraton Hotel, but development has increased in the last decade with dozens of skyscrapers being built towards the north of the Corniche. Much change has occurred in the last twenty years, due to the new fame of Doha (Qatar’s capital), the economic boom the country has been experiencing, and the country’s desire to open up and promote tourism, which was facilitated by the 2006 Asian Games. Many of Doha’s landmarks are found along the Corniche which begins near the Museum of Islamic Art, and ends at the Sheraton Park near the distinctive pyramid-shaped Sheraton Hotel. (by wikipedia)
