Parks, cafés and restaurants with incredible views
The West Bay skyline must rank among the most gorgeous in the entire world, even if we are undoubtedly biased (cough).
No matter how often we utilize the same route, the renowned skyscrapers never cease to amaze us and make journeys along the Corniche feel special.
These parks, coffee shops, and restaurants should do the trick if you’re seeking for the greatest spots in Doha to take in the West Bay skylin

Hotel Park
The park next door is a great place to see the West Bay skyline because the Sheraton Grand Doha has been there before it rose. There are several cafés and restaurants to choose from, and the park’s modest hills are a well-liked location for picnics (and picture shoots).
