Doha: South Bazaar (Bazaar Al Janoob) kicked off in Qatar last month at Al Wakrah Central Market. Bazaar Al Janoob is the first popular market in the Doha and Al Wakrah area.
The bazaar contains a series of fun and entertainment activities and events organized by the management of the South Bazaar. It is the first of its kind in the State of Qatar, and It will continue throughout the year, to provide families with an incentive and an invitation to visit Shopping & Entertainment activities.
The bazaar offers heritage, cultural, and social events; especially with the return of many families ahead of the holy month of Ramadan, which is considered the most important event during the summer holidays in the Arab region.
The bazaar is expected to attract more than 12,000 visitors from Doha and other neighboring countries in the Gulf region.
Al Wakrah is one of the most prominent cities in the south of Qatar. It is characterized by a high population density and a multiplicity of cultures and nationalities, and the South Bazaar aims to launch recreational and tourism activities for local residents, and visitors from neighboring countries within the framework of the bazaar management strategy to contribute to the development and support of the tourism sector in Qatar.
The management of South Bazaar stresses that the development of internal local popular markets in Qatar is as important as various other activities and investments.
Building a strong domestic tourism base is an essential element of any sustainable national marketing and tourism strategy, as relying on domestic tourism has become a goal that Qatari and international businessmen and companies aspire to, especially in light of the great reputation that Qatar has achieved by hosting the World Cup.
A number of observers pointed out that the past twelve months have witnessed many natural and economic conditions that may occur unexpectedly that would affect domestic tourism, which is reflected in the increase in the number of foreign tourists.
The observers also noted that it was important to have strong cultural events for domestic tourism to move forward with the long-term strategy for the development of domestic tourism and the entertainment and shopping sector.
Qataris and residents will both become ambassadors promoting Qatari tourism and attracting international tourists through heritage entertainment events organized by the country in general and the South Bazaar in particular.
South Bazaar local events have an international flavor
The strategy of Bazaar Al Janoob is based on stimulating shopping and entertainment by hosting popular events for different nationalities, working to stimulate a sense of pride towards the culture and heritage of the various communities residing in Qatar. The more time the visitor spends in Qatar, he sees and learns more about it, which enhances traditions and helps to build diverse events.
The management of the South Bazaar expressed its response to the comments and suggestions made by visitors who are looking for more activities in Qatar by organizing new events such as the Ramadan Festival and summer events. The management introduced important changes in the activities and events of the South Bazaar in Qatar, including activities for children and families this summer that will last for about two months, including the month of Ramadan and the days of Eid Al-Fitr.
Special programs and activities will be organized during the holy month of Ramadan. This year, the bazaar is culturally sponsoring activities for various sectors, especially the media sector, where it is possible that the bazaar will host social associations, communities, and cultural associations among other various activities.
It is also worth mentioning that Bazaar Al Janoob is located in Al Wakrah Central Market in the south of Qatar, and it is the first open bazaar that extends over an area of 15 thousand meters and includes various goods from all over the world. It includes gates that have been dedicated to cultural and economic diversity.
It contains products from around the world distributed over separate markets, each representing a different culture, and is characterized by prices that suit everyone, as it gives the opportunity to shop and entertain all family members.
