Hostelling in Qatar
Take a camel trip through the desert; watch the sun set over sand dunes; sail on a dhow; meander through colourful markets; go horse racing. A former British protectorate, this Persian Gulf state has been governed by the Al Thani family since the mid 1800s and has been fully independent since 1971. It was once a renowned pearling nation but has more recently become a significant producer of oil. It offers extraordinary desert scenery, particularly around Khor Al Udeid, the 'inland sea' in the south east; bustling souks, or bazaars, selling anything and everything from embroidered cushions to camel–hair cloaks; a rich Bedouin culture - with a strong tradition of weaving; and a range of intriguing sports from camel racing to falconry. The two hostels in the capital, Doha, are well located for visiting the city's fort and other intriguing museums and can advise on touring further afield.Membership
