Souq Waqif




Our favourite place in Doha has always been Souq Waqif. It is one of the few places that feels like we are actually in Arabia. And we are fortunate the girls love it too. Souq Waqif is Arabic for market stop and here they have different lanes for spices, oud and perfume, hardware, pets, materials, toys and trinkets and traditional souvenirs We were given some arabic coffee with cardomen and dates at our last visit buying spices and the girls loved the traditional flat bread served with honey as pictured. How she makes this in 45+ degree heat amazes me. I was sweating just standing near her.
