you can find a lot of souvenirs at Souq Wakif, It's have many shop there not only animal and perfumes, you can find the shop near Haggen Daz or you go to City Center near Carefour it's have souvenirs shop there, simply as that enjoy your shopping
come over to my office for a show of souvenirs that we hold. Costing starts from qrs.150 & above.
Supplies tend to be sporadic, so if you find a decent supply be sure to stock up (like everything else). To be honest since they are gifts I choose more for the packaging than the quality of date.
expo centre in city centre or al shaheen
try you will find something
Thanks.. i'll check them out..
Britexpat--Most of the dates are, but you can buy local ones in decorative boxes at most groceries. I get them all the time as gifts for friend, and them seem to go down very well. Just make sure they are packaged for the sake of customs.
Thobe,ghutra, sandals. Paintings, prints of Qatar available in Waqif.
well, you can also buy swards or daggers which are freely availble in any gift shops, the good ones are pretty expensive though but worth a lot. There is a souvenir shop on the Salwa road near Sami restaurant you will fing a very good collection there.
Hope this helps
most of the dates are from Saudi Arabia :o)
Go to the Museum of Art and get something from the gift shop theer..
Bring a tower, they grow like mushrooms here

On a serious note try
A dullah (traditional coffee pot with a set of small kahwa cups (for Arabic coffee)...you can buy Arabic coffee in the souq but I like the coffee from the shop Al Ameed opposite Macdonalds on C ring road after Ramada (this is usually brewed slowly with added cloves, saffron, cardamon but quick and easy way to make the coffee is use about one tblsp. with one regular size mug of boling water
Land Cruiser :P
Camel's milk... :) In the farm.. hehe
Buy dates--they're one of the few things actually made in Qatar.
Then go with LP's suggestion.
Or take a bottle of LPG with you.
