What people say

Their Happy Trails
"We have to admit, we're not usually the "museum-type" of travelers, but this place was amazing! The well-laid-out structure guides you through various halls of displays, interactive hotspots, and incredible visuals that mesmerize your experience. The walls are digitally created, making them a fascinating vision in themselves. Even our 5-year-old daughter was thrilled, excited to discover what was around the next corner! There's a café and souvenir shop on-site, but we suggest bringing drinking water as the entire experience can take up to three hours."
"The National Museum of Qatar is a cultural landmark designed by the architect Jean Nouvel, inspired by the desert rose crystal formation. The museum's distinctive structure and immersive exhibits narrate the history of Qatar from its ancient roots to its contemporary development, highlighting the country's natural history, culture, and heritage. Opened in 2019, it features a variety of artifacts, interactive displays, and multimedia experiences."
