Qatar's largest mall is City Center. In this huge mall are many stores to choose from. Other malls include Landmark, Hyatt Plaza, The Mall, Royal Plaza and Villagio, ranked one of the best malls in the world by Forbes. All of these malls have a huge variety of stores.
Blue Salon has huge sales every six months where you can pick up Armani, Valentino and Cerutti suits for half price. There are many good tailors in Qatar and it is a good place to have clothes made to measure and copied.
The souqs in downtown Doha also have a lot to offer, although the goods are usually of cheaper quality than those of the malls. Prices are usually negotiable, so practice your bargaining skills. Souq Waqif is the most interesting of the souqs; it was renovated to look as it did 50 or 60 years ago. |
