Every country has a rich history that it is proud of and Qatar is no exception. The country has an impressive background and has come a long way from what it used to be in the past. The Msheireb Enrichment Centre is dedicated to documenting the ancient times in the Middle East and showcasing the phenomenal development of the country at present. The structure of the centre is similar to what you would find in a museum but what is interesting about this place is how the exhibits reveal the stories of the past. The exhibition centre is separated into four sections, Baraha, the past, the present and the future. Baraha is the entrance to the centre and it is designed under the concept of a communal gathering where people would meet and be introduced to the many aspects of the centre. Here you will be provided with an overview of Msheireb properties and you can view alternate solutions to urban living which was developed by Msheireb properties.
The section dedicated to the past looks at the earliest developments in Qatar. Qatar was once popular for pearl diving. The society subsisted on the very resources that were provided by the ocean. Ancient Qataris spent their time honing their skills for pearl diving. The tools used for pearl diving, fishing nets, ship building tools are all on display. All of these exhibits prove that people can survive on the limited resources available since natural elements were the only sources available to provide food and shelter.
When you move on to the present you find the architectural masterpieces and technological innovations that were founded in Qatar. Qataris have held onto their cultural element during the era of development and it is obvious that each of the aspects in their modern life is reflective of Middle Eastern culture. The future explores the possibilities that can emerge in the next decade or so as the exhibition centre outlines the plans they have for the year 2030. Sustainable development, eco-conscious constructions and green living are what the future holds for this nation. When planning a visit to Qatar, look at a hotel Doha has to offer.
