Overview

Qatar Tourisme, for an outing to the desert that is brimming with beauty. Pass by the Mushroom Rock and stop by the Ras Abrouq Rock Formations, a landscape of limestone rock foundations sculpted by the wind. Drive past a local village and discover the Al Maha Sanctuary which is home to the elegant Arabian Oryx, the small antelope which is considered to be the country’s emblem. Finally, marvel at the magnificence of EAST-WEST / WEST-EAST by Richard Serra, a perfectly aligned art installation that stands tall in the desolate desert.

(Note: you may or may not spot Oryx)
