  3. I have never been in Alkhor Mall. This blog entry is very helpful to explore. How about Dar Al Salam Mall? I thought it will be included. It was the first mall I visited here in Qatar.

  11. Villagio ! DFC is the mall i like , but would like to visit this al hazm mall , i hear some news that if you will visit this mall you should wear abaya , is it true sir ? or it was just rumors .

  12. I have visited all these malls but I like villagio mall as it’s close to my place it’s a complete package from food to leisure activities

  13. Just last night, we visited Al Hazm mall, its an outdoor mall, fully tiled, lighted with full of locals henceforth mallers and on black(abaya) and white (thobe).
    Ambiance are so inviting but food are so hefty 🙁 being surrounded by high end resto. My kids enjoyed strolling under the moon and stars (though we aint find any 😅) though we still thinking of we still intend to go back there 🤣

  14. Have tried and visited all the mentioned malls! Maybe because the kids and I are always out and about. 😂 Our favorite though is Festival city. ❤️

  15. Love going to malls to relax and unwind.. I’ve almost swept all these malls except for Ezdan mall Wakra.. so that will be my next itinerary if time permits .. thanks BestlifeQatar for listing all these grand malls in Doha..
