Doha
Been here a few times already solo, family and with teenagers. Located a bit outside city center, but like everything in Doha easily accessible with Uber/Taxi etc. Very interesting architecture and layout is good. The exhibition gives you a good journey on the Islamic culture and history. Many great pieces on display from all around the world. Can really recommend
Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England
This place is amazing. Set unpleasant gardens with great views of the water. Great amenities including a good priced cafe on the ground floor. The art work and explanations are amazing. Allow 2 - 3 hours for your visit.
San Jose, California
Arrived just as it opened and it was a great experience for both the building space and the art. Exhibit on the building development by IM Pei was fascinating. The pieces of art are well chosen and representative, and even though we had been to many Islamic countries, some aspects we had never seen before. Best thing to do in Doha.
