Katara Cultural Village

Katara Cultural Village is situated in between the Pearl and West Bay. It has an open air Amphitheater, a multi-purpose cinema, a multi-purpose conference hall, an opera house, souq, beach, dining areas, masjid and Pigeon towers.

Pigeon towers are made of clay, specially designed to provide shade for the pigeons. These are located in front of Katara Masjid (Mosque). Katara Masjid is a classical work of Persian art and a must visit. Qatar Photography society has an office there. Also there are many other offices.

Pigeon Towers
We couldn’t see the remaining of Katara cultural village due to two reasons. Firstly we were in Qatar Airway’s city tour so we have limited time to see all the places (also we only had 10 hours transit time) and secondly the temperate was 38 deg C and we didn’t want an out-door activity in this weather even if we leave the city tour.
