点评:While driving around the East/West art installation we saw quite a few road warning signs for oryx and have known about the existence of this zoo that had oryx for a while now so we decided to check it out. We saw the oryx and quite a few other animals we didn't expect to see like hyenas, a lion, pigeons, parrots and African deer. Some enclosures are empty and could use better natural lighting. There is room for improvement to the animal enclosures but we still saw many Arabic families enjoying the park and BBQ area out here. Some of the paths are uneven or slippery so it is best to wear good shoes and watch your footing if you are planning to visit.
There is a small amusement park here as well that we saw quite a few people enjoying. There is a swimming pool and some cabins out here but they were all closed down when we visited. The big draw to this area would be the camel races and camel facilities and that is absolutely worth checking out in Qatar but this is an ok side attraction.
It takes about an hour to get here from Doha and could be combined with other sightseeing in the area but it's not for everyone. The cost to enter the zoo portion is 10 QAR and a man sitting out front sells the tickets. Parking is free but limited and we spent about 30 minutes here on our way back to Doha. It is definitely not a zoo for everyone but we hope with some reinvestment and renovations it could be something.
翻译:在东西方艺术装置周围行驶时,我们看到了很多羚羊的道路警告标志,并且知道这个有羚羊的动物园的存在已经有一段时间了,所以我们决定去看看。我们看到了大羚羊和许多我们没想到会看到的其他动物,如鬣狗、狮子、鸽子、鹦鹉和非洲鹿。有些围栏是空的,可以使用更好的自然采光。动物围栏还有改进的空间,但我们仍然看到许多阿拉伯家庭在这里享受公园和烧烤区。有些路径不平坦或湿滑,因此如果您计划前往,最好穿好鞋子并注意脚下。
这里还有一个小游乐园,我们看到很多人在玩。这里有一个游泳池和一些小屋,但我们访问时它们都关闭了。这个地区最吸引人的地方是骆驼比赛和骆驼设施,这在卡塔尔绝对值得一看,但这是一个不错的景点。
从多哈到达这里大约需要一个小时,可以与该地区的其他观光景点结合在一起,但并不适合所有人。进入动物园部分的费用为 10 卡塔尔里亚尔,坐在前面的一名男子出售门票。停车免费,但数量有限,我们在返回多哈的路上在这里待了大约 30 分钟。这绝对不是一个适合所有人的动物园,但我们希望通过一些再投资和翻新,它可以成为一个东西。
