Doha, Qatar: Museums and heritage sites in the country have seen a significant jump in the number of visitors over the past two years, almost doubling since December 2022, a Qatar Museums official has said.

“The National Museum of Qatar (NMoQ) saw 600,000 visitors in its first year, and what I can tell you, at least from a heritage perspective, is that our numbers are more than double what we used to do for the World Cup,” said Abdullatif Al Jasmi, who is Director of Cultural Heritage Protection at Qatar Museums (QM).

Speaking to The Peninsula recently, Al Jasmi said Qatar’s museums have also seen an increasing interest not only from the local education institutions but also foreign schools and colleges.

“The number of school visits has jumped from maybe two or three visits per month to three to five visits per week.
