Timeline
16:25
Grab a late afternoon coffee or snack at Ric's Kountry Kitchen. It is one of the few places in Doha serving classic American comfort food, and it is close enough to the anchor to start your walk without rushing.
16:45
Walk north to Museum of Islamic Art Park. The short stroll from the anchor area lets you stretch your legs and take in the approach to the waterfront. The park is only 16 minutes on foot from the Orientalist Museum.
17:05
Head to the Doha skyline viewpoint to watch the sun dip below the horizon toward the WSW. This spot offers clear views of the West Bay skyline and is the perfect place to catch the final moments of daylight.
17:35
Move to Al Mourjan for dinner. This upscale restaurant near Al Bidda Park serves tasty Lebanese dishes and offers some of the best views in Doha, making it an ideal spot to enjoy the evening atmosphere after dark.
18:05
End the night with a casual drink or light bite at Thai Smile. Located just a short walk from Al Bidda Park, this spot offers outdoor seating and casual Thai street food, perfect for winding down after a formal dinner.
Local tip
The Orientalist Museum closes early and requires an appointment, so this plan focuses on the public spaces and dining options nearby that are open in the evening. Al Mourjan and Thai Smile are both near Al Bidda Park, keeping your evening walk short and pleasant.
Check before you go
