Doha, Qatar, a mysterious city in a wonderful country...

Explore the Arab world and experience exotic customs. I came to Doha for work. I visited the venues for the 2006 Asian Games built by our compatriots, as well as local cultural landscapes and customs. Here is a travel guide to Doha, Qatar that I have summarized: - Attractions and prices: - Museum of Islamic Art: Designed by I. M. Pei, the building itself is a work of art. The museum displays Islamic art from around the world. Admission is free. - National Museum of Qatar: The unique "desert rose" exterior design and the interior displays of Qatar's history are free to visit. - The Pearl-Qatar: An artificial island with a Mediterranean-style marina, high-rise residences, villas, hotels, and many shopping venues. It is free to visit, but some activities on the island require an additional fee. - Corniche: A beautiful 7 km promenade with views of the waterfront and city skyline. Admission is free. - Souq Waqif: You can buy a variety of Middle Eastern specialty goods and experience the rich Arab customs. Consumption in the market varies from person to person. For example, buying specialty items may cost a few dollars, and tasting local food costs an average of 20-50 dollars. - Katara Cultural Village: There are museums, mosques, concert halls, etc., with a strong artistic atmosphere. Admission is free. - Msheireb Museums: White Arabic-style buildings, the museum displays the impact of the oil industry on Qatar's development, etc. Admission is free. - Hamad International Airport: The airport has characteristic landscapes and rich facilities. If you only visit, there is no charge, but consumption in the airport depends on the specific situation. - Food and prices: - Hanok Restaurant: A Korean restaurant in front of the National Museum. A set meal with a staple food, a dish, and a small kimchi is about 150 RMB. Cold noodles and fried chicken are popular. - Parisian Cuisine: In Souq Waqif, it is a Persian-style restaurant suitable for eating barbecue, and the price is moderate. - The Chedi Katara Hotel & Resort Afternoon Tea: The environment is beautiful, facing the Arabian Gulf, with a private beach. The price of afternoon tea for two is 395 Qatari riyals (about 800 RMB). - Kamachi Restaurant: A popular Indian-style restaurant in Katara Cultural Village, the dishes are close to Chinese cuisine, and the per capita consumption depends on the order. - Chabrat Al Mina Restaurant: A local restaurant with high reviews, about 300 RMB per capita, but reservations are required for many people. - Precautions: - Language communication: The official language is Arabic, and English is common, but local residents have a heavy English accent. - Dress code: Ladies should avoid wearing sleeveless, miniskirts or transparent clothes in public places, and men should avoid wearing vests and shorts; when visiting religious sites, avoid wearing miniskirts or shorts. - Taboos for taking pictures: Do not take pictures of locals, especially women and children, when taking pictures. If you need to shoot, you should first obtain their consent. - Religious customs: Respect various regulations and customs of Islam, such as not eating or drinking during the day during Ramadan. - Consumption and shopping: Qatari currency cannot be exchanged in China, it is recommended to bring dollars to exchange locally.
