DOs in Qatar

Here is I tried to share something and it could be useful during traveling in Qatar

DO remember that Qatar is a Muslim country and you need to dress appropriately. Both men and women should keep shorts and sleeveless tops for the beach.

DO be prepared to bargain with shopkeepers particularly in the souq. Asking for discount is the norm.

DO make sure you drink plenty of water. Your body needs more than fruit juices carbonated drink. tea and coffee. On average you should drink one pint of fluid for every 10 degree Fahrenheit. Ideally, if the temperature is 80 degree Fahrenheit(27 C), you should drink 8 pints of water per day, if urine becomes yellowish, it's sure sign you are dehydrating.

DO remember to cover your head when you are outside during the day. A slight breeze can fool you into thinking it's cool, but the sun can be very fierce during the summer months.

DO ask permission from people before take photographs. Many of the older people and most of the women object to being photographed ; equally, avoid sensitive sites or picture that include members of police or armed forces.

DO remember to keep your driving license and insurance papers in your vehicle at all times. They will be needed in event of an accident.
