 Reiseservice Graw [ uit Seefeld ]
Seit 1993 wird jedes Jahr im Januar ein ATP-Tennisturnier ausgetragen. Spannende Kamel- und Pferderennen sind Klassiker, ebenso wie Sand-Skiing und Sandboarding. Traumhafte, saubere Strände, unser Luxushotel mit seiner hervorragenden Küche und das herrliche Ambiente erwarten Sie. Eine Fahrt mit dem Jeep durch die Wüste zu dem Binnensee "Khor Al Udeid", der von riesigen goldgelben Sanddünen umrahmt wird, ist ein unvergeßliches Erlebnis, aber nur eines der vielen möglichen Ausflugsziele.

Cuisine - arabische keuken / Qataarse keuken

While Arabian cuisine is based on the traditional foods of the nomadic tribes – who ate what they could carry – Qatari cuisine is based on the traditional foods of just about anywhere and everywhere! In keeping with its historic status as an international entrepôt, Qatar takes an international approach to eating out. Chinese, Indian, Japanese and Thai flavours mingle with those of Italy, France, the Mediterranean, Mexican and beyond . However, no visitor should miss the chance to sample local specialties. Supremely fresh fish and seafood from the Arabian Gulf is an obvious choice, with lobster, crab, shrimp, tuna, kingfish and red snapper topping the list of favourites. Meat dishes tend to be based on lamb – the nomadic tribes people would be accompanied by flocks of sheep – slow-cooked and served with a variety of side dishes>

Common Arabian specialties include hummus (a paste made from chickpeas and sesame seeds), tabbouleh (chopped parsley, mint and crushed wheat); ghuzi (a whole roast lamb served on a bed of rice with pine -nuts), koussa mahsi (stuffed courgettes), and shawarma, grilled slivers of lamb or chicken, wrapped with salad in a pocket of Arab bread. Qatari specialties include matchbous (spiced lamb with rice), hareis (slow -cooked wheat and lamb) and seafood served with delicately-seasoned rice. Favourite desserts include a type of bread pudding called Umm Ali (literally, "Mother of Ali"), a sweet cheesecake with a cream topping, known as esh asaraya ("bread of the harem"), and mehalabiya, a pudding made with pistachios and rose -water. Breakfast is served early by western standards, and traditionally consists of yoghurt, cheese, olives and fruits washed down with strong coffee. Lunch is the main meal of the day, while dinner is a much lighter meal (except during Ramadan) and is usually served late in the evening.

Geschiedenis van Qatar

Onafhankelijk van Groot-Brittannië op 3 september 1971.

Qatar has a rich and vibrant history, a history that can be traced back as far as 4000 BC. Throughout the centuries, the fishing and pearling trades have established Qatar as an important port in the Gulf. With the expansion and growth of its oil and gas industry, the port and the country maintain their international importance.

Some nice museums, such as the Weaponry Museum, the National Museum, the Qatar Heritage Museum and the Museum of Islamic and Arabian Art, owned by HH Sheikh Faisal bin Qassim Al-Thani.

Muziek, Cultuur en Entertainment

Primarily a Bedouin culture, Qatar's traditions are based on poetry and song, while amazing art is created through weaving. Using tools made from both wood and gazelle horn, weavers work with sheep, goat, and camel wool to create beautiful rugs, tents, and cushions.

 Uitgaan
Local nightlife is found in traditional shi-sha places and coffee houses. The shi-sha is the Arabian water pipe; very popular amongst local people and foreigners.
Int'l nightlife in Qatar is limited due to strict religious rules and mainly takes place in the modern international hotels, such as the Marriott, the Mövenpick, the Sheraton, the InterContinental, The Ritz Carlton, The Sofitel and The Ramada Hotel. All of these hotels have excellent bars and discotheques and nightclubs.
