Traveling the World #165 - Museum of Islamic Art @ Doha, Qatar

Hi Everyone,

As mentioned previously, many people stay indoors during the day in Doha as the heat is just a bit too hot for some people. As tourists, w would try to also find things to do during the day but of course would be indoors. We took the opportunity to visit the Museum of Islamic Art. We ordered an Uber and arrived around 15 minutes after leaving our hotel.

The heat hit us immediately once we got out of the Uber. The museum is built on a man made area with water surrounding the area. As you can see below, there are lots of open space but nobody was out due to the sun and heat right in the middle of the day. This museum houses many different treasures from around the world. After some quick snaps, we quickly made our way inside.

Before you go to the museum, make sure you wear appropriate clothing. This includes no singlets for both men and women, no mini shorts and skirts for females or any revealing clothings. There is no entry fee either which was great for those visiting and want to visit numerous times as there is so much to see. If you check the website, there are many floors and rooms to explore so be prepared for a full day visit.

We explored many rooms and some of them had some really interesting collection. Below are some of the things from the first few rooms I loved. I love details on these bowls and jug. It just seems so precious to use and is best to have them displayed so other people can appreciate them as well. As the museum has lots to offer, I will share with you the different collections I enjoyed in the coming blogs.

大家好. 之前跟大家說過，在多哈很少人知道會在白天出去因為天氣實在太熱. 但做遊客時間很寶貴所以要找一些東西可以在白天做的. 這次我們去了多哈伊斯蘭藝術博物館看看不同國家的寶物. 在外面很快拍完照就進去到博物館. 去之前要注意是要穿適合衣服，比如不可以穿短裙，短褲，背心等等. 這裡的入場費是免費的所以如果想來多看幾次都可以的. 在每一個房間都有不同的主題所以真是很多東西看. 這裡實在太多珍貴的東西所以我會往後幾天都會介紹一些我比較喜歡的寶物.
