Well, Dubai Mall is like comparing the St. Regis Hotel with Ramadan Inn Motel! There is no comparison! The Doha City Center's floor is broken ceramic, stained with all kinds of paints, drinks, ect... Disgusting!

The mosque seems tiny for westbay :S

And I think Asas tower had a fire or something on its side... (my guess from what it looked like before the renovation...)

Hey guys, I'm aware that there is an entertainment city being built in Lusail, but I'm not sure if a theme park is incorporated into the development. Does anyone know if there are any actual theme parks being proposed/constructed?

That is a question I'm dying to know the answer for !!! It seems intresting,,,,

I also noticed that along the corniche from the post office all the way to the souq, they placed pictures of the old corniche in the 60s/70s and other pictures of old Doha, is this a sign for something or is it just for decorative purposes ?

I was hoping so, but it doesn't seems like it will be. they talked about it in alsharq few months ago and they said above the ground and didn't mention underground at all. they also mentioned tunnel to connect souq waqif Alcornich st

حمد العقيدي-محسن اليزيدي: علمت الشرق أنه قد بدء تنفيذ مشروع إنشاء مواقف للأسواق والكورنيش مرتبطة بنفق تحت الأرض حيث تم البدء بإنشاء مبنى مكون من ثلاثة أدوار كمواقف إضافية للسيارات بالمنطقة المقابلة بمكان شرطة العاصمة سابقا، وذلك ضمن مشروع تطوير الكورنيش بإنشاء مرافق ضخمة وتغيير واجهة وفرضة الكورنيش وعمل مشاريع عالمية كبيرة، ومنها مرسى للسفن اليخوت ، حيث يتم العمل على قدم وساق لساعات متواصلة من اليوم في موقع المشروع الذي يتواجد به عشرات العمال والمعدات والآليات التي تقوم بالحفر. وهذه المواقف تمتد على مساحة شاسعة مواجهة للسوق. وأكد مصدر مطلع لـ الشرق أن إنشاء مبنى المواقف الجديد سوف يقضي على مشكلة الازدحام وندرة المواقف التي يتعرض لها كافة رواد السوق بشكل يومي. وقال المصدر لـ الشرق ان أعمال تنفيذ المشروع تستغرق عدة سنوات، حيث سيتم إنشاء مواقف ذات مستوى عال وبأحدث التقنيات والمواصفات العالمية. وكشف المصدر لـالشرق انه سيتم عدة أنفاق في مبنى المواقف تربط كورنيش الدوحة بسوق واقف حيث يتسنى للجمهور الوصول إلى سوق واقف أو الكورنيش عبر أنفاق أرضية. وقد تابعت الشرق انطلاق الأعمال في أحد الأماكن المميزة بقلب الدوحة وتوصلت من خلال مصادرها الخاصة إلى جواب على كافة تساؤلات الجمهور حول سبب إغلاق المواقف الشمالية لسوق واقف.
this project should be constructed like the one in west bay infront of sheraton hotel. underground with a park above.

We are looking for an Middle Eastern city to join in the 2028 Olympic Bid process and I feel Qatar is the best choice in the region.
