FIVE times a day, the Muslim call to prayer echoes through the mazelike passageways of Souk Waqif in Doha, the capital of Qatar. Projected from slender minarets that dot Doha, a low-lying white city along the Persian Gulf, the warbling, ages-old Arabic incantation reverberates through stalls selling everything from traditional khanjar daggers to baby strollers. When it arrives, merchants in long, white gutras and checkered headdresses kneel toward Mecca and pray. more than 100 buildings and towers are going up in Doha, whose modest skyline is currently punctuated by about two dozen high-rises. Cranes fill the hot sky. Skeletal hotels, resorts and financial centers ring Doha Bay. And from every corner, a symphony of earth-moving equipment and power tools hums the theme of one of the world's richest countries (as measured by gross domestic product per capita) striving to become a world-class business and leisure center. GETTING THERE No direct flights link the United States and Qatar, though some carriers offer one-stop itineraries with connections on other airlines in Europe or the Middle East. British Airways has June round-trip fares, connecting through Heathrow, near London, for around $1,500. GETTING AROUND Taxis can be hailed on the street and in front of hotels. They come in three flavors. Old orange-and-white subcompacts are the most common, but these are gradually being replaced by new, more comfortable sea-foam green cars. Both varieties use a meter and charge 0.5 rial (about 13 cents at 3.8 rials to the dollar) a kilometer. A trip within central Doha runs roughly 5 to 10 rials by day (fares double at night). Hotels are also serviced by special, unmarked luxury sedans. These have no meter and charge a flat rate, generally starting at 20 rials for even the shortest trips. Ask for a quote before getting in. WHERE TO STAY Until Qatar's enormous new wave of splashy hotels and resorts starts appearing later this year, the Four Seasons Hotel Doha (Doha Corniche, 974-494-8888; Four Seasons Browser Compatibility Page), opened in 2005, is the luxurious new kid on the block. The sandstone-colored towers of the hotel, with 232 rooms, overlook Doha Bay and contain several international restaurants, bars, pools and a spa. Standard doubles start at 2,200 rials ($579), though the hotel offers a Family Getaway Package Thursday and Friday nights with doubles starting at 990 rials ($260). Also perched on the water is the Ritz-Carlton Doha (West Bay Lagoon, 974-484-8000; Luxury Hotels and Luxury Resorts: The Ritz-Carlton Hotels & Resorts). The property has 374 rooms, nine restaurants and bars, a spa, some high-end boutiques and even a 235-berth marina. Doubles from 1,200 rials. Though "budget hotel" is an oxymoron in Doha, the Oasis Hotel and Beach Club (974-442-4424; www.oasishotel-doha.com) is the closest contender. It has a large pool, a few so-so restaurants and a modest beachfront. The downside is the threadbare 1970's décor. Doubles from 700 rials. WHERE TO EAT Prices reflect a three-course meal for two people, without wine. Unless otherwise noted, the following restaurants do not serve alcohol. Don't be distracted by the cheesy nautical décor at the Sultan Ibrahim Fish Market at the Inter-Continental Hotel (West Bay Lagoon, 974-484-4919). Choose your meal from an ice table of freshly caught gulf fish and crustaceans -- including barracuda, red snapper and Omani lobster -- which the chef will grill, steam, boil or fry to your specifications. Wine and beer are served. About 450 rials. Qatari businessmen crowd the richly decorated Arabesque interiors at Ras Al Nasaa (Doha Corniche, 974-441-1177). The menu is stocked with Middle Eastern specialties, including tabbouleh, chicken shwarma, grilled lamb and shish taouk (marinated boneless chicken), as well as chicha pipes and fruit tobacco. Around 120 rials. Qatar's most "Sex and the City"-worthy restaurant is unquestionably Mint, in the Al-Muthana shopping strip (Salwa Road, 974-467-5577). Outfitted with high-end designer furniture and bubbling with cool electronic music, the restaurant-lounge serves cod carpaccio, garlic beef with couscous, Thai noodles with chicken, and more. About 200 rials. More happening and almost as chic is Le Nôtre (Salwa Road, in the Al-Emadi Center, 974-455-2111), just down the block. European professionals, stylish Lebanese expatriates and Qatari girls in black veils dine on loaded focaccias, gourmet pizzas, sushi rolls and abundant decadent desserts and pastries. About 220 rials. WHERE TO DRINK Only hotel bars and clubs are allowed to serve alcohol, so Doha has no concentrated night-life district. For cigars and sophistication, Habanos, at the Ritz-Carlton, has a long list of Scotches, Cognacs and rums. More populist -- and crowded -- is Paloma, at the Inter-Continental (West Bay Lagoon, 974-484-4444). As the house cover band churns out "I Touch Myself" and other ghosts of top 40 radio, a dense throng of European expatriate professionals, airline crew members and businessmen on junkets quaff pints and dance in this Mexican-themed restaurant-bar. The sleek, chic Pearl Lounge Club in the Doha Marriott (974-429-8888) admits only members (who have to submit to an interview and a 150-rial fee), women and guests of the Marriott. If you fit the criteria, the payoffs are D.J.-spun house music, a sushi bar and bottle-juggling bar staff members. WHERE TO SHOP For local color and goods, visit the downtown souk (market) district, which is centered around Grand Hamad Street. The Gold Souk, just off Al Teeb Street, is full of necklaces, rings and other baubles. Most interesting for handicrafts is Souk Waqif, on Al Souk Street. Though undergoing renovation, it's still the spot for water pipes, stringed instruments, swords, woodwork and other Middle Eastern creations. Haggling is de rigueur. Modern Qatar unfurls at City Center Doha (West Bay, 974-493-3355), a huge mall whose 350-plus outlets include French Connection, Nine West, Rivoli, various Oriental rug dealers, an Iranian sweets shop and the inevitable Starbucks. SIGHTSEEING The National Museum on Doha Corniche is closed while a Jean Nouvel-designed addition is being constructed. When it reopens, tentatively scheduled for later in 2006, it will contain themed areas devoted to Qatar's landscapes, origins, settlements, seafaring history, nomadic traditions and natural wonders. The Museum of Islamic Arts is also supposed to be completed by year's end. The other coming high-profile Corniche cultural establishments -- the Museum of Islamic Arts, the Qatar Photography Museum and the Qatar National Library -- are expected in 2007 or 2008. For a picturesque angle on Doha, and a panorama of the construction ringing the city, take a boat ride to Palm Tree island. The small artificial island in the middle of the bay has parks, playgrounds, restaurants and a beach, as well as lovely views. Boats leave from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily from the corniche, just southwest of the Sheraton. A round-trip ticket is 20 rials. لا تنسوني من الدعاء __DEFINE_LIKE_SHARE__ | |||||||||||||||||||||
