The National Museum of Qatar, National museum in Doha, Qatar

The National Museum of Qatar features interlocking discs inspired by desert rose crystals, creating a distinctive architectural structure spanning 350 meters in length.

The museum incorporates the restored palace of Sheikh Abdullah bin Jassim Al Thani, which previously served as the seat of government and residence.

The exhibition space spans 1.5 kilometers across eleven galleries, presenting Qatar's evolution from early settlements through pearl diving to modern development.

The museum opens daily except Fridays from 9:00 to 19:00, with admission costing 50 QAR for adults and free entry for children under 16.

The building's specialized disc formations function as sun filters, reducing energy consumption for interior climate control throughout the structure.
