Construction of a second Souq Waqif location – this time in Al Wakrah – is wrapping up as developers prepare to open the new market on Dec. 18, in time for Qatar National Day celebrations.
Situated behind Al Wakrah petrol station, next to Al Wakrah port, the development stretches for 3km along the town’s coast, with an esplanade running down the open beach-side.
Cafes, restaurants and shops will be housed in the existing buildings. Designed to reflect the town’s fishing village heritage, the souq features mock-aged walls and brightly painted wooden doors. It is also set to have outdoor seating areas with views out across the bay.
