Doha
Gulf peninsula metropolis
Doha is the capital and largest city of Qatar, a small nation on the Persian Gulf.
The city has transformed from a fishing village into a gleaming metropolis of skyscrapers and artificial islands, hosting major international events and serving as a hub for Middle Eastern commerce and diplomacy: the Doha Round of trade negotiations, the 2022 World Cup in Doha.
