The Museum of Islamic Art (MIA) represents Islamic art from three continents over 1,400 years. The MIA is also the flagship of Qatar Museums and its ambition is tto ransform the State of Qatar into a cultural capital of the Middle East. The museum building has rapidly become an iconic feature of the Doha landscape. Standing alone on reclaimed land, the building draws much influence from ancient Islamic architecture, notably the Ibn Tulun Mosque in Cairo. Designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect I.M. Pei, the Museum is comprised of a main building with an adjacent education wing connected by a large central courtyard. The main building rises five-storeys, topped by a high domed atrium within a central tower.

| Met these two brothers next to Souq Waqif in Doha, Qatar. They proudly told about the horses they own, showed me around the stable and introduced me to their favorite companions. The Arabian Horse is a symbol of power, grace and sensitivity. According to ancient legend, the Arabian horse was born of a handful of the south wind and virtue is bound into the hair of its forelock, its master is its friend and he has been given the power of flight without wings. |
