Al Wakrah, ~17km south of Doha

Al Wakrah Heritage Village

Souq Al Wakrah pairs quiet lanes of perfume, textile, handicraft and antique shops with a beachfront promenade lined by cafés and restaurants. It works best as a late-afternoon or evening stop, when more of the market and waterfront dining scene is active.

Opening hours: Vendor and restaurant hours vary; confirm a specific venue before travelling
