I want them to be impressed

the museum lol hehe thats 1 place i can tell

Thanks everyone
Regarding museums,I dont think they will be ever intrested (no offence).
As for wakef Souk /the Palms iland we will keep it in mind,
what other attractions does Qatar offer?
They will be here for just 1 week,so no time really for dissapointments.
Any other recomended restaurents?
Thanks all

I am facing the same thing my guests are coming but i can only plan one day out of their 4 days here...gosh there is just nothing here no attractions, no good places to go, damn it...why do I love qatar :-)

Hope my BS can keep them busy..lol!!!

But malls, shopping, corniche, beach, eating out every night, "karak" chai :-), driving around...is what i have in mind!!!

Dude Hmmmm all of the above and the "BS"!!! But u know qatar life is like an acquired taste, once u get the hang of it, its ok but once in a while every 1month there comes a time when you want to "[Mod Removed]" about things :-)

But it will be a hard cookie to sell to my guests...sigghhhh..if only they like their chai karak that would have not been a problem!!!

Baps thanks for your advise but they are not coming on Eid.

Plus those things they can be found anywhere in the world there is nothing too exciting about them. For example you go to other places you see culture, history, and you are excited about it. Recently I took at trip to europe and i enjoyed every bit cos so many things to see, and i was stopping for a while in dubai to doha. When i landed in dubai it was a very empty feeling, although new buildings and all but i dont know it felt all artifical. Same in doha they r not preserving any hisotircal places, even the old souq they r making it like its an old place .... although its nice and all but its lacks the excitement...

So back to croniche, plam tree, malls...eid or not eid...:-)
