Worldcup 2022
Experience Qatar
Qatar has been an attractive destination for many visitors. These places include cultural, historical, and natural landmarks, parks, gardens, and amazing beaches, in addition to several malls, annual festivals, and art shows, which are held throughout the year to entertain the whole family and visitors. The country’s vast desert, natural beaches, and surrounding waters are impossible to ignore. They are ideal locations for all kinds of outdoor activities including camping, sand dunning, and jet skiing, diving, and snorkeling.
Qatar also plays a key role in the sports field by investing endlessly in all kinds of sports on the international level to strengthen its foreign relations and diplomatic ties with other countries worldwide. Striving to become the new sports center in the world, Qatar won the FIFA World Cup bid for the football championship that will be held in 2022, thus becoming the first Arab country in the Middle East to host this big event. On December the 2nd 2010, FIFA announced that Qatar would host the 2022 FIFA World Cup bringing the world’s most prestigious tournament to the Middle East.
