The rankings were based on a variety of parameters, including international openness, business environment, health and hygiene, ground and port infrastructure, to name a few. Simultaneously, Qatar was ranked second for safety and security and third for having a supportive business environment. When one considers tourism in Qatar, especially in light of the National Vision, it becomes quickly clear that Qatar is not necessarily a tourist destination, rather it is a cultural destination. Every year, it runs a cultural exchange programme that serves as a bridge between Qatar and an international audience. Through a variety of exhibitions, festivals, competitions and events, Qatar promotes mutual understanding, recognition and appreciation between countries across the globe. Stephanie Akkaoui Hughes in her article ‘On a Cultural Safari’ (Page 31) states that every visit to Qatar, whatever its original purpose, naturally morphs into what can be called a cultural safari.

Its waterfront palm-fringed boulevard and twin carriageway extends in a horseshoe shape and runs 7 km along the Doha Bay and the city's sea-front. Doha Corniche is indisputably the most attractive part of Doha, studded with exciting green surroundings and remarkable modern architecture. The Corniche was formed during the late 1970s and early 1980s, reshaping Doha’s coastline. The public space used to be an empty walkway, however development has expanded in the 21st century with many skyscrapers being built towards the north of the Corniche. Presently, the Doha Corniche is an appealing designation of the economic boom. Today a rapid development of the built environment of Doha including public urban open spaces is witnessed. Open spaces are functional under the circumstance that they are used by the people; however, the open spaces in Doha are vacant due to the unappealing and uncomfortable physical and non-physical factors, namely during summer. This paper proposes an integrated approach for improvement of human comfort conditions in a public outdoor space all year round with emphasis on the summer season.

Aerial ropeway systems have been operated in touristic spots e.g., over lakes, rivers, and hilly lands in several countries. Passengers can enjoy a view from the above and experience a stress-free and reliable trip. Furthermore, those systems can be exploited as a public transportation in urbanized and populated regions. The objective of this article is to investigate the viability of implementing a gondola line flying over Doha Bay in Qatar as a tourist attraction from the marketing, economic, and environmental point of view. In this study, the associated costs (capital, maintenance, and operating) of implementing a monocable detachable gondola technology(MDG) are estimatedDraft using international best practices in the world. The economic analysis outcome demonstrates that the revenues generated from the fares could counterweigh the required capital investment as well as operating and maintenance costs and hence the proposed gondola could be economically attractive for investors.
