The city of Al Khor is considered to be older than the capital city of Doha. Located to the north of Doha, this city and municipality had a population of around 31,000 according to the 2004 census. In the earlier days, the city emerged as a pearl fishing center. However, at present, Al Khor at Qatar is ready to develop into a tourist's paradise in the coming five years due to the upcoming $ 5billion project covering an area of 80m sq ft, by the two Qatari developers, Diar and Barwa. This development is to include two hotels, chalets, a marina, sports facilities and beautifully designed gardens.
