Souq Waqif, Doha


These dapper Qataris are shopping in a quiet corner of Souq Waqif, a historic market in Doha.  You can buy falcons, swords, fabric, and dinner here.  I chose to buy some jewelry.

Although the souq did have a pleasant and appropriate middle eastern ambiance, and dates from the time Doha was first settled, it was almost completely rebuilt in 2006.
