FCO travel update: there are no travel restrictions in place for Qatar - 3 Dec 2012.
Land of the archetypal oil fields, Qatar is also the airways' gateway to the Gulf countries. What sets Qatar apart from its neighbours in the Emirates is its relatively undeveloped tourism infrastructure. However, it has no intention of falling too far behind the well-known resort city of Dubai. Some resorts already exist in Qatar and others are in the pipeline. The country is alot more advanced when it comes to preserving its culture. Although the destination is still mostly visited by business men or Gulf expatriates, it deserves a visit if you are having a holiday in the Emirates, because it offers a particular blend of architectural modernity and Islamic tradition.
