This is more of a private museum of the Rulers of Qatar (Emirs) …this was built in the year 1998…lot of effort to maintain each and every item is clearly visible …Islamic tradition, vintage cars ,boats , clothes from various areas of Islamic heritage, swords and weapons used by the royal family and gifts received are all kept in this museum…ticket prices are a bit on the higher side but for a history it’s worth a visit
The museum was massive, and I thoroughly enjoyed my visit. It took me a good two hours to explore its diverse exhibits, which included sections on cultural history, animal leather, religious history, an impressive guns collection, vintage cars, and even a helicopter. The range of displays was fascinating, making it a must-visit for anyone interested in a wide variety of subjects.
Tickets cost I think is QAR 50

Wonderful trip down Memory Lane; the museum showcases some beautiful objects from not too long ago: the perfect place to get nostalgic and at the same time to teach our children and help them understand what life was like when our generation was young. Even though it is a bit disorganised I would say compared to what you’d expect from a regular museum, it is so beautiful to see all it had to offer. The museum was built around a real well they said about 75 years old and my son had a blast learning about how we used to get drinking water. The building itself is lovely and there is a little caffe at the end; in the winter you can sit outside next to a small lake with the partly sunken ship (my son loved this). On the drive to the museum building we saw peacocks roaming the grounds and even crossing the road so please do drive slowly and carefully there. When we visited the main cars showroom was under renovation but we still had an amazing time. My son can’t wait to go back there. The entrance fee is 50 qrs and we were very very warmly welcomed at the reception by nice people who explained to us a few things about the museum as well as served us with the tastiest traditional Arabic coffee and dates.
The Greatest place I have ever seen in qatar one the unique buildings and structures...like fort buildings ..Near By Farms are awesome to see There some peacock and horse we can see sometimes...There lots of Dates Tree there with Fresh Dates...it's not look like a dessert it's full of Greenary and multi plants are there...All must Try this place.. Evening time suitable for this place Farm entry is free but But Museum Entry is 50Riyals Actually...Ancient vechiles there they used for agriculture... evening 3:30 pm is suitable time for visit..
The collection is pretty eclectic and shows an appreciation of many cultures. I especially liked the Syrian House and the story behind that. I also got lost in the fossil collection. I don't remember that being there last time I went, pre- Covid. Also, the added car collection is really cool. I wanted to see the Oryx on the farm, but I came in the afternoon, and this is too hot for them to be outside.
