Winters in Qatar are a blissful time. With the temperatures dropping to 18°C and below here, it is time to make the most of the beautiful weather and the winter clothes that are otherwise stashed away for the rest of the year. This year’s temperatures are rather wonderful too and do not miss the opportunity to enjoy it in Doha. So put on your favourite sweater, hoodie or jacket and head over to these places within the city limits for a lovely time!

This beautiful seafront promenade is a great place to enjoy your evenings and if you are a lover of the cold weather, this place is a must-visit. Make the most of the cycling and walking path, and also take respite on the seating overlooking the expansive water right across it with the cool breeze blowing at you. You can also pick up little eats and coffee from the Lusail Marina Food Arena right next to the promenade and enjoy it by the water. Take in everything that this place has to offer and do not forget to take selfies with the I Love Lusail sign while you’re there.
