Shopping in Doha - Villagio and Old Zouq

Yesterday i promised my 2 japanese colleagues to join them for doha shopping. Because one of them will return to japan for vacations. He need to buy something as souveniours to his gf, colleagues, friends and family in japan. Actually nothing we can buy as souveniours. Everything is quite expensive. The only we can get is either coffee beans, chocolates, or dates.

Anyway, i still manage to go to famous old market in qatar (Zouq) and snap some pictures for sharing.

Due to is friday noon(praying time for muslim), all shops are closed and no one is around....Lol...

During noon time(praying time)

Evening time (same street as the photo above if you noticed the qatar flag)
Coffee house in Old Zouq

Unique buildings as I couldn't see it in my country. The surface of the buildings look rough and not flat.

Ok, now go to shop at shopping mall (Villagio). This is the shopping mall (Villagio) in doha with Venice theme as the design. I found quite a numbers of shopping mall using Venice background as attraction. I saw my friend who just visited hong kong lately also shopped at similar shopping mall like this.

There is an ice skating court also.

The decoration of this shopping mall is abit look like new wing of sunway pyramid in Malaysia. Same idea for the decoration i think......hmm.....
