Hi. As promised, here is Qatar4ever's contribution (from the old thread), enjoy and please stick to the topic:



Hello all,

For such a long time I've built a collection of pics of my lovely city Doha. I won't take pics from touristy websites or any such source. All these pics are either from some of my friends in flickr.com how share their pics in "Qatar Group" or are my pics.

Enjoy and comment !

A beatiful picture by "Al ajanabi" of Doha's changing Skyline. Its still young but growing it very fast !

The Al Zubarah Castle in Northern Qatar. Many wars have been waged for the right to rule this Castle. Today it stands as a reminder for the people who gave their lives to this blessed land. Thanks to "Al ajanabi."

A symbol of our culture stands on of the many beatifully decorated round-abouts of the Cornish. "Al ajanabi" did a good job capturing it !

As "Al ajanabi" puts it best, "the Corniche is always lovely but really has this surreal translucence at night."

Nice man :).

Good stuff, how come I never see anything from the airplane whenever I land in Doha :bash:

i been showing my friends all these pictures...they think doha is very nice and they think about visiting someday, but the fact is, Doha could be very boring and everything could be seen in less than 3 days.

true !

Nice, what is the first building? The second one is a beach palace or a hotel??? I assume its a hotel but I could be wrong.

the first building is the Diwan "al-amiri"

i doubt pic no.2 is Sealine beach resort. it's either Lusail palace of the late emir, sheikh Khalifah, or the beach palace of prime minister sheikh Abdullah, widely known among locals as "Diana's palace" in west bay.

^^ Why Diana's palace??? Somethin to do with the late princess diana or some other chick called Diana?

No, it is sealine beach resort. And btw sheiok khalifa did not die.. you wrote late emir... maybe you meant former.

thank you. the error is highly regreted.

I really wanna c the diana palace. I heard its very nice. And the first pic is the pic of our white house.

Honestly, i think the amiri diwan should get a make over. It has potential to look much much better, sort of like the Emirities Palace Hotel in AD.

No one answered my question, why is it called Diana palace? Is it in relation to the late diana???

Yes it is. I think that it was first built for her to stay there whenever she came to Doha. Although, I believe she only came once.

there's few changes are taking place outside the Emiri Diwan. they turned the staff car park into a green surface, the clock tower is getting a face lift & the old Emiri Diwan on the west end of the current Diwan is being renovated. hopefully they'll demolish it & rebuil it as to match the design of the current Diwan.

somehow, the Emirats Palace hotel in AD doesn't fascinates me much. i'm talking about the exterior design. i never been there, but sadly, it looks gloomy and has a big indian architectural influence, rather than traditional gulf architecture. but then, i guess when you can afford it, and you're enjoying your bubble bath in your Ambassador suit, then the design doesn't matter much, does it? :)

I never once found Qatar/Doha boring, well I guess it all comes to what you wanna do there :)
I am there quite often, and I havent seen ½ of Qatar yet :nuts:
