al noof masterpieces and gifts: "do you need a souvenir?" Doha Shopping Tip by call_me_rhia

Doha Shopping: 38 reviews and 84 photos

 
 

Would you like to buy some local souvenirs? Something that is actually unique to Qatar and (here's the catch) made in Qatar? The only place we found was in Souk Wakif, in a little shop called Al noof. Our friends who live in Doha took us there - not only for the souvenirs, but to see the three dimensional plastic model of how the city looked in the past.

What to buy: You can buy small and large locally-made three dimensional plastic models, like the one in the photo. They mostly represent traditional buildings or city landmarks and are quite nice. They also cost very little.

What to pay: The smallest ones start at 30 rials.
