Abandoned villages, archaeological sites and protected areas are scattered throughout the municipality of Al Shamal. Visitors come to enjoy the many beaches but also to spend more than a few hours in Abu Dhalouf Town. You will discover ancient mosques at this quaint little destination. One of Qatar’s most famous attractions is Abu Dhalouf Park. Located along the beach, it offers breathtaking views of the Arabian Gulf. The park is also near the city centre, so you and your family can wander, shop and marvel at a lifestyle completely different to glittering, ultra-modern Doha.
