The Qatar National Library is a must to visit if you are into great architecture and books, Education City itself is a great area to visit in Doha. The library has an enormous selection of books and allows residents to borrow them, with the pandemic they have an online appointment system and you can also request books online just for pick up, great place, beautiful building, and a great location.

I was here for the Ajyal Youth Film Festival which was just amazing non-stop fun from day 1. Apart from the actual film festival, I found so many more things to do at Katara. There is a Falcon House, antiques auction house, arts area where local artists (who produce the most beautiful art) work and are so welcoming & inviting to visitors (they will engage with you and ask you to try out pottery or painting or calligraphy etc), restaurants and cafes, and plenty more. I believe there is always something happening in Katara but be sure to check what event is coming up before your visit or just visit Katara anyway! It'll be a peaceful/relaxing/inspiring day out. All the restaurants and cafes are of top quality with a variety of cuisines to choose from (traditional 'fish & chips' at a seafood testaurant, curries at an Indian restaurant, Middle Eastern food at a Lebanese restaurant and plenty more). During the festival there was live outdoor entertainment from all over the world (while films were screening indoors with activities for children, and a red carpet event for international celebs such as Draco from Harry Potter and the Wasp from Ant Man) and as the weather was just perfect (not too hot or cold), with ample seating, it was just magically perfect! Moreover, the bathrooms were the cleanest I have ever seen in all my travels! Cleaners are on standby, waiting to clean up after every single visit! Even around Katara, you will constantly see cleaners working around the clock. Also, you can hitch a ride with a caddie (wherever you see one that is free) to give you a free of charge tour around Katara or even just to get you from one place to another (if you're feeling a bit lazy or tired). While we were there, the mall at Katara was still under construction, so I can't wait to go back and check it out as retail therapy was the only thing Katara fell short of to keep you going till midnight!
