World Heritage Qatar Zubara Fort

Zubara Fort is one of Qatar's most representative historical sites. It is located on the edge of the desert and showcases the cultural and architectural beauty of Qatar. This late 18th-century fortress was originally a military facility and later became a museum displaying local historical artifacts and archaeological findings. The stark contrast between the surrounding desolate desert landscape and the solid mud-brick walls makes one feel as if they have stepped back in time. If you love history or are looking for a peaceful getaway, Zubara Fort is a great choice and part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site that you shouldn’t miss.
