Description

Explore northern Qatar on a guided day tour from Doha. See Eliasson's installation "Shadows Travelling on the Sea of the Day," explore the abanded fishing village, Al-Jumail, and discover the 20th-century Al Zubara fort.

Begin your day with a hotel pickup in Doha. Head to Al Zubara fort in the Al Zubara Archaeological Site. Explore this UNESCO World Heritage Site and learn about Middle Eastern history and military life in Qatar in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Next, drive into the desert, passing Ain Mohammed village, to reach Olafur Eliasson's latest public art installation, Shadows Travelling on the Sea of the Day.

The desert, dotted with traces of animals, desert plants, and rock formations, expands around the installation for miles, encouraging viewers to come in contact with themselves and their surroundings.

Look up to see the ceilings fitted with large mirrors reflecting the sandy ground below. The artist wants viewers to realize that when they look up, they actually look back down. Connect with your surroundings and the ground as you explore the installation.

Continue to Al-Jumail Village, an abandoned pearling and fishing village. Explore this 19th-century village and learn why people left for the big cities in the 20th century.

Finish your tour with a trip to the northernmost point of Qatar before returning to Doha.
