Al Shahaniya Racetrack
The Al Sheehaniyah Camel Racetrack is located in Qatar and is known for hosting camel racing events. It is one of the prominent venues for this traditional sport in the region, attracting spectators and participants. Camel racing is a popular cultural activity in Qatar, and these racetracks play a significant role in preserving and promoting this traditional sport.
This breathtaking sculpture in the Brouq nature reserve spans over a kilometer and comprises four steel plates, each over fourteen meters in height. To guarantee perfect alignment, Serra examined the topography of the land and beautifully enhanced the vast, desolate space in the heart of the desert. The result is spectacular and although contemporary, timeless.
Discover the natural beauty of the desert and the arid wilderness at Zekreet. Dominated by unique mushroom-like limestone rock formations, the area has an otherworldly feel.
