AT A GLANCE

Why Doha for a Anniversary Escape trip

Doha makes an anniversary feel cultured and calm. Start with the Museum of Islamic Art, where the waterfront terrace frames the skyline across the bay, then explore Souq Waqif's spice and falcon stalls at dusk. Celebrate with a fine-dining dinner, a traditional dhow cruise along the corniche, and a desert excursion to Khor Al Adaid, the Inland Sea where dunes meet the water.

Qatar's capital pairs a striking modern skyline with deep Arabian heritage, from the Museum of Islamic Art on its own island to the desert-rose architecture of the National Museum of Qatar and the lantern-lit lanes of Souq Waqif. Its luxury is polished and serene: high-rise suites in West Bay, waterfront living on The Pearl-Qatar, and hospitality steeped in Gulf tradition.

When to go: November to March is the best time to visit, with warm, sunny days and cool evenings ideal for the corniche and desert. June to September is extremely hot and humid, making indoor attractions and spas the focus.
